Mpeg Streamclip – multiple conversions
Operating System = Mac – Snow Leopard
Conversion Software = MPEG Streamclip 1.9.2
Source Codec (DVD files)
Destination Codec = Highest Resolution Video and Audio that doesn’t need to render in FCP
Type of Destination Use = Create Demo Reel in FCP (cut down versions of original Source material), Create Flash Video Versions for Web (Full Length)I have all of my documentaries I have cut on DVD’s. Most of them are about an hour in length and I was hoping to rip them through Mpeg Streamclip into the highest possible file(s) so I can edit them in FCP without rendering the timeline. I have the hard drive space so I would like the files to be uncompressed (highest quality).
I would also like to create flash video files from the original ripped files.
Any advice and/or settings I should use in Mpeg Streamclip would be greatly appreciated.
thank you.

I’d go with the ProRes Codec.

There are several Pro Res Codecs. Which one should I use?
444
422 (HQ)
422
422 (Proxy)
422 (LT)Should the Quality of Video be at 100 %
Sound = should it be uncompressed or should I use the pass Thru settingFrame size = should I keep it native 720 x 480 (DV-NTSC)
Field Dominance = should I keep it upper field?
Should I deselect the following:
Interlaced Scaling
Reinterlace Chromathanks for your help
