Does PremierePro keep original format ?
Hi 🙂
There’s one thing that always makes me sleep bad 🙂
Let’s say I capture Native HD, then import into Premiere scale it down to SD and Render a preview for better handling and more important for feedback on the TV-Monitor. Then after editing I remove all of the scaling from the clips and render it to HD. Just to make that clear: I have a SD (720×572) Project the let’s me see what I am doing on the TV via a Matrox Xtreme card. And I then output a preview-rendered sd Project. Is it for sure then using the source files or the preview that would then be upscaled to hd.
And of course this would be good to know over all formats. Is the Preview used in any way for final rendering ? I noticed, the when I have a normal dv-sd project, and have effects and transitions rendered, the final dv-rendering is much faster. I guess as it IS using the preview data.
Thanks for evey idea or answer.

The preview files are used when exporting to AVI, but not to MPEG.
I don’t understand what you are trying to do for certain. If you mean you want to edit as a SD project, then when you are done, scale it up while exporting, that will not work. Import the SD project into a HDV project and then take the scaling off. That will work.
