    Had similar problems going to 5.1

    1) can you re-create these titles from scratch? this is easiest.
    2) reduce the number of system fonts… see if that helps. Boris doesn’t seem to like hundreds of installed fonts running
    3) triple check to make sure you only have 1 version of Helvetica running. I had issues with two conflicting Helvetica’s that caused problems.

  • thanks for looking Oliver. I just needed to know I wasn’t imagining things.

    these are all the same questions I’d like to have answers to. this is an example of getting exactly what you pay for. the HD transfer were done as “favors,” unsupervised. There’s no money for it – at all – so that’s the best they could get.

    the SD looks great, and it’s finished. Sell the rights, get money to finish it properly….

  • P.S. You’ll need to DOWNLOAD AS the jpegs.

    I have yet to see a scaled SD image on a LCD monitor that didn’t make me wince… Using the HDLINK with an Apple Cinema display gives you pixel-4-pixel SD… but it’s really small on the screen (like watching the canvas viewer) and any 3:2 just distracts the heck out of you. Best solution – so either blow a salary on a BVM, or keep a PVM in the room.

    Do you have a film recording house already in mind? If so, just ask their tech. Chances are it’s going to be simpler than asking us. I’d typically render out 16bit TIFF’s from a 10bit quicktime.

    also check the FAQ’s, etc.. on efilm.com. tons of useful tidbits so you feel a little more comfortable.

    motion tab – scale until you lose the letterbox.. i think 133% should do

  • A couple quick ideas: new sequence, copy and paste entire edit into it OR you might have to just bite the bullet and match frame/f10 every edit.

    For that price it’s probably got 720 physical resolution. true 1080p LCD televisions are expensive… and you gotta make sure they’ll accept 1080p HDMI and not just 1080i.

    Does this happen all the time, any other tape, or just with this? Is it a DF tape? Is the TC offset even across the entire capture or does it drift? If so a quick fix is just to Modify->Timecode and you don’t have have to trash your media.

    Have you tried capturing in smaller chunks – common wisdom says a 95minute quicktime file isn’t the best way to digitize – maybe in 10 minute chunks.
