Mine – this spec – works fine.

So Jason was this 1080i50, 1080p25 ??

And if so did the Bluray disks play okay and on what?

Alan

[Alan Lacey]

Yes, thanks Rafeal, that was my thinking too.

Micheal, like most people on these forums – and I’m speaking for the little people here – I do hope you’re wrong. Thank you for the insight though, I’ll watch this space with interest.

Thanks Guys,

But I’m a bit concered, Rafeal, that BR will only support 1080p and not i.

If that’s true then it looks like I’ve no option but to shoot 1080p25

Hi Michael,

As that’s a year or so away yet, I’ve not given it much thought. Now that Bluray’s the HD DVD format of the future, I assumed that suitable players will be available by then.

Walter Biscardi and others over in the FCP forum are authoring in Encore and so presumably finding players for their material in the US.

I’m just trying to minimize my problems downstream by choosing the best format to shoot in at the moment.

Thanks Alan

I’ve both a 350 and an EX1 and would agree with Don, although I’ve nothing quantatively abot this.

Alan

[Alan Lacey]

thanks to all of you.

It all seems a bit arbitary as when I preview the video stream, they look very different on PC v Mac anyway.

Cheers

Thanks Tom,

I was exporting using the mp4 option.

David,

I can’t find any of the filters (brightness/chroma) you mention when I try to export via QT conversion from fcp.

Are you going via compressor?

Thanks Alan

[Alan Lacey]

Thanks for the advice David, that’s a correction I make in the export ‘using quicktime conversion’ option is it? I’ll give it a go.

Kindest regards

Alan
