ADOBE YUV encoding
OK for days I have been trying to track down how adobe encodes the video with the XENA cards. I have 2 apps that both capture from the XENA cards. One is an app created by drastic technology, the other is PP 2.0.
I have examined files created by each app and although they are both creating uncompresses UYVY encoded files the one created in PP2.0 will not even play back in windows media player.
I have found 1 difference that I have not run into before.
PP2.0 encodes the file as: UYVY 422 8 bit CCIR 601
Drastic encodes the file as: UYVY 422 8 bit ITU-R 601Again I can play the drastic one in mediaplayer, import it into combustion, after effects 6.0 and 6.5, digital fusion, and windows media encoder. The one created by PP2.0 only works in PP2.0 and After Effects 7.0

Ok I know no one cares but me, it seems I am the only one whoactually already owned a whole host of XENA cards when this came out, but I have arrived at the solution. 10 bit mode. My first tests were in 8 bit mode, and there was no compatibilty with the rest of the world. When I continued into 10 bit everything started huming along.
Funny aside… After Effects 6.0 is still not compatible, but combustion is in all of its versions.
