    Hi all,

    I was wondering if anyone has any opinion over which is the ‘better’ standards converter – the Nattress plug-in for FCP or the DVfilm’s Atlantis application.

    Nattress’ converter costs half of what DVFilm’s does, is this indicative of quality?

    Has anyone used both and come up with an opinion? Nattress seems to be the most well-used (or the most mentioned anyway – possibly because of price).

    Is Compressor as good as the above? or is a dedicated converter the way to go?

    Thanks so much!

    will

    I’ve only used Nattress and it’s always worked very well. I’ve read threads where people have rated it better than Compressor. I’ve no experience with DVFilm.

    Most Compressor conversions miss the most important setting, nmely intelligent use of the Frame Controls tab. IMHO this method writes the best conversions
