mixing XDCAM HD 25 & 35 problem
I was testing the 35VBR and comparing it to the 25CRB. I tried to rendering the 35 in a 25 timeline and the 25 in the 35 timeline and neither will render. Anyone else tried this?

Well, yeah…..
You’re trying to mix apples and oranges when you try to edit with 25 and 35 mb/s XDCAM HD. The same holds true with the standard XDCAM. Think of it this way… why can’t you edit 29.97 video on a 23.98 timeline? Its the same concept.
The only way of dealing with this issue (problem) is to log & capture the old way. I learned of this when we first got our XDCAM stuff last year. The first few shows were shot in 40 mb/s and then we found out that FCP couldn’t handle the bitrate at that time. So we had to change to 50 mb/s and everything was fine.
Oh well, new technologies bring new troubles.

Thank for the input Wayne. It’s odd you can’t force it to render to the other bit-rates.
New media, new challenges.
Thanks again, Dave

Yeah, you’re right!
And I thought editing with a Sony 5850, a Sony 5800, and an RM440 was cool twenty years ago!

Yeah, I miss those days. The machines clanking back and forth trying to get in sync for the edit. NOT!
Love plucking the files from the disc at twice realtime!
