    Working with P2 – HD to SD

    Posted by Eric Bridenstine on October 9, 2008 at 1:19 am

    Hello all,

    I’m was able to import into my HD Avid System what I shot on my HVX 200A. It was shot at 720 24PN. I was able to bring it in, but the project will not let me then bring in any SD footage, and when I try to bring in HD footage into an SD project, I get the same problem.

    Is there a way for an HD project to support SD footage or the other way around?

    I know in Final Cut, all you have to do is render the footage that is not native to the timeline. Am I missing something simple?

    Thanks

    Eric

    In the Project Window, under Format, switch to an SD format.
    Framerates need to be equal, though. If not, you’ll have to convert one to the other.

    I can only choose 24fps. Do I need to convert and which export method is the best way?

    I have the same problem as the original poster. Anyone out there that can help?
