  • Help: MPEG-2, 30 bis 50 Mbit/s, I-frame-only 4:2:2P@ML

    Posted by Giacomo Snyder on December 2, 2009 at 8:32 pm

    I have to upload a movie with the following specifications:
    MPEG-2, 30 bis 50 Mbit/s, I-frame-only 4:2:2P@ML
    Anyone can give me pointers on the correct settings in FCP/Compressor?
    Or do I even have to use a different software?

    Thanks!
    Giacomo

    I don’t understand what 30 bis is.

    The rest looks like a transport stream. Episode Pro should do it for you, but check with Telestream first.

    It means 30 to 50Mbit.
    So there is no way to deliver this with Compressor?

    You can get up to 40Mb/sec in Compressor.

    Just choose a new MPEG-2 preset and choose ‘Generic’ for stream usage.

    In the extras tab you can choose 422.

    Unfortunately, you can’t choose the GOP structure, so not sure if it’s I-Frame only or not.

    Compressor can’t can’t encode MPEG-2 with 4:2:2 chroma sampling, it doesn’t support it. You’ll need to use Telestream Episode for this functionality.

    Hi,

    If I’m not mistaken:

    422P@ML, MPEG2, I-Frame only, 30/40/50 MBit is also the specifications for Sony IMX NTSC/PAL 30/40/50 MBit – which can be exported out of FCP and Compressor as MOV files.

    Hope that helps!

    Cheers,
    Greg

    It does, you just have to turn on the Generic profile. It still doesn’t do as much as Episode, though.

    Greg, duh. Yeah D10/IMX it is.
