    capture codec Digi Beta PAL, output DVD

    Posted by Steffie Prietzsch on September 19, 2007 at 9:09 am

    Here’s the problem:
    I’ve got about five hours Digi Beta PAL 4:3 footage of lectures that I need to output on DVD.
    Usually I would capture 10 bit uncompressed for TV broadcast.
    As I am new to the wonderful world of DVD authoring, I am not sure which codec would be best to use for capturing in this instance.
    Plenty of storage available.

    Thanks!

    FCP HD, Dual 2GHz G5, X Serve Raid, AJA IO, 10-bit uncompressed, Beta SP and Digi Beta PAL

    If you have plenty of storage available, there’s no penalty for going 10bit.
