    960X540 problems

    Posted by Darrel Harrison on March 24, 2010 at 8:03 pm

    When we do long captures with FCP7(over 5 min) using our Decklink Studio 2 card and DCVProHD codec we end up with the mysterious 960X540 half rez files. Short captures (30 sec to 1min) are fine.
    We don’t see this with ProRes.
    Video source is HDSDI, tried several sources including rock solid color bars. Same result.
    Any ideas?

    The DVCPRO-HD Codec spec for 1280×720 is actually 960×540. For 1080 it is 1280×1080(60Hz) and 1440×1080(50Hz)

    So it sounds right…

    My mistake, for 720p it should be 960×720, I confused it with the sensor information for the HVX/HPX500…
