  • How do I Use DVSD Video Files in FCP?

    Posted by Kevin Jones on January 11, 2006 at 1:23 pm

    I have a huge quantity of archived video files on CD. They were saved as DVSD video files which were the native files used by Speed Razor, my old editing software.

    Example: YourShot.dvsd

    Now I have a brand new shiny Final Cut Pro system and would like to be able to import DVSD video files.
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Is there a codec I need or a simple way to convert them to Quicktime friendly files?
    Thanks for the help!

    Ya know? I’ve not ever read a post about how to do this one… These files are AVI based files or?

    But I’d think if you can open those media files in another PC app you could export them as QT movies from there… i.e. maybe something like After Effects on a PC? I’m fishin, but don’t know of any other software that will work with those files personally, but I’ll wager you do…
