    Hello:

    I have doubts about a project I have to do.
    It´s a video that has to be projected on big screen (small cinema).

    The material that I have are DVDs and photos. I wonder two questions.

    What is the best setting to convert the DVD with Mpeg Stream Clip to work with Final?

    I am in Europe so the DVDs are PAL. Apple Pro 4:2:2 8 bits Uncompresed or Apple Pro Res 4:2:2 HQ

    What is the best sequence settings to work in Final with that material?

    Then I guest I have to use the same settings of the quicktime created.

    I don´t know how I will give the master, probably a quicktime that they can send from the computer to the projector.
    Thank you so much, and have a nice day.

    ProRes or ProRes LT if you have FCP7. Uncompressed and ProRes HQ will not improve your footage. It will just give you enormous file sizes.
