sooo… anyone knows what’s the new DNX bitrate?

[Job Ter burg]

Ranging from 442Mb/s for 720p23.976 to 1989Mb/s for 1080i59.94.

hi Job

that sounds very interesting… if i’m calculating right, that’s 2:1.
where did you get this info from?

is there white paper for the new DNX?

Pretty sure it’s uncompressed 4:4:4 RGB.

you’re right, i was calculating for 60P not i

but if its uncompressed… why is it DNX? and how is it different from what’s currently available?

i’m still betting in the area of 2:1

Yeah, it’s gotta be compressed, ’cause the marketing literature says something about maintaining your pristine color in a bandwidth-friendly manner (or words to that effect)…

If you do the maths, it is uncompressed. Period. The data rates I quote are correct.

[Job Ter burg]

P.S.: They don’t label it as DNxHD. It is labeled “1:1”.

then why make a big deal of it and publish as a new feature?

rgb 4:4:4 1:1 has been around for a while

I think I am mistaken and indeed am confusing the existing 4:4:4 RGB 1:1 10bit resolution with the new one.

[Mike Most]

No, if you do the math, it is approximately 2.5:1. Uncompressed HD is approx. 1.2 gigabits per second. The 440Mb rate is essentially identical to HDCam SR, and identical to the SR Master format Sony is offering with the F65.
