HDV capture, ProRes render?
I captured a project in HDV and am curious about the upside of rendering in either DVCpro HD or ProRes HQ. Will that make a difference or do I need to recapture?

If you set an HDV native sequence to render to ProRes, (type cmd+zero to open that sequence’s settings and choose the processing tab to change this) you’ll speed up render times by about 40%… and with no visible picture quality loss.

What Jerry says is true, but if you have the drive speed and space you are better off capturing to ProRes.
Have a wonderful day.
