    Hi Folks…

    I have 2 questions that I like your opinion on.

    Question #1

    I’m color correcting a show edited in FCP with the DVCPRO HD codec (720p25)
    Now I want to grade that in Color and export it to the same codec
    But the final deliverable is in SD PAL Uncompressed 10Bit

    When I sent the footage back to FCP, I’ll get a DVCPRO HD Sequence, but how do i get a SD final.

    A: by using Export>Quicktime Movie, Recent Settings, and use Compressor for the transcoding to SD Uncompressed 10Bit

    B. by changing the sequence settings to SD Uncompressed 10Bit, Render Timeline, Export>Quicktime Movie with Current Settings (and deselect Recompress All Frames)

    C. by just using Export>Quictime Movie>Setting Uncompressed 10 Bit (and select recompress all frames)

    D. I know you can do a hardware conversion but I lack the Kona 3, I do have a Decklink Mulitbridge

    Question #2

    I recently edited a show in XDCAM IMX PAL 50 Mb/s

    Also here I needed a Uncompressed 10Bit version for dump

    A. by changing Sequence Settings to Uncompressed 10Bit, Render Timeline, Export>Quicktime Movie with Current Settings (don’t select recomress all frames)

    B. by changing Sequence Settings to Uncompressed 10Bit,Do Not Render Timeline, Export>Quicktime Movie with Current Settings (select recomress all frames)

    C. by keeping the Sequence Settings to XDCAM IMX PAL 50 Mb/s, Export>Quicktime Movie> Settings set to Uncompressed 10Bit (select recompress all frames)

    I’m at least interested in the difference between A and B (rendering timeline without recompress all frames, or not rendering timeline and with recompress all frames)

    These are workflow options that I hope you can shed some light upon

    Thanx in advance…. This forum is a real lifesaver
