  • From Apple Intermediate HDV to PC… which codec is best ?

    Posted by Martin Fisher on October 5, 2008 at 8:05 pm

    Hi all,
    I have some footage in my mac that i want to use in my pc, the problem is that i used Apple HDV codec to capture it, so i have to export it using some other codec. I thought that the blackmagic codec would be a good option, but its way much more heavy than the Apple HDV codec…
    Any suggestions on a some codec that will be similar as Apple HDV but works on PC ?
    Thanks for your help

    PhotoJPEG at 75% quality is 4:2:2, at 100% is 4:4:4 or Apple ProRes 422 (Apple have just released it for Windows)
