    Another Question:

    If I have ProRes SD footage. Is it better to work in a timeline that is set to “None” compression (which requires me to render the sequence) or to work in a sequence set to “ProRes”? When I render the footage in a “None” sequence and export the footage it looks better than prores, but the interlacing on movement is way more apparent than when exporting a prores 9at least it is on my cinema display). Now, when I upload to DG is this going to matter, or is it just the fact that i am not viewing this on a broadcast monitor? Also, the graphics appear cleaner when I use the “none” compression setting over a “ProRes” sequence.

    Better where? Not on a broadcast monitor. None is 8bit RGB. ProRes is 10bit YUV and has an uncompressed quality. I’d stick with ProRes.

    If I change my sequence settings to no field dominance on the ProRes it seems to make the motion crisper as well as the graphics. will this effect broadcast at all?

    Jeremy is correct that the SD is mpeg, sorry for that one, I post all the HD stuff here not the SD. I will post the HD specs on Monday just in case they are useful for anyone.
