Dear Shane,
thanks so much for you help.
Probably I had bad advise compressing the footage to proress 422 and reducing the frame to 720,
but that permitted me to reduce all the footage to assamble to a 1 thera, from 3 thera and work with a laptop.

Luckily I still have all: the original project t in FC where I logged and transferred the clips in DVCPRO HD in 3 HardDisk.

The matter is transform the sequence with the linked clips from proress720 to dvcpro hd 1080

To solve this matter could work also this way?:

In the project proress in media manager create offline set the new sequence at DVCPRO HD 1080
deleting inused part and put all in a new project
Then try to recconect media from the original 3 harddisk to this new project.

About the print of film. What’s your suggestion? export a unique file in Quicktime?
If I export the project in the same DVCPRO HD 1080 24p native
Quicktime say that the frame is 1920×1080 and the codec is DVCPRO HD 1080i60, if I put 1080 30p I will have the same frame and codec but just a better bit rate.

What about you experience in the print with cinevator? Thank-u so much

Hi guys,
maybe the topic could be helpful. Sorry I joined the communty today.
I shooted a movie with DVCPRO HD 1080 1280×1080 24p with panasonic and I used in Final Cut Media Manager recompressing all in AppleProres 422 HQ 1280×720 24p for editing.

Now, for a film transfer I would like to use the native quality. So, if I do the inverse, compress the sequence from Proress 720 do Dvcpro1080, I am sure that the quality of the new Master clips will be igual with the native footage? All the color correction will be lost? I tried with 30 sec and it works everything, but I can’t see any difference in quality between 720 and 1080.

My question is if I have to compress (reduce) all right but if I have to put more information in the clip
enlarging the frame size, is media manager/final cut able to do really, putting back the infrmation that had discarded?

I tried with EDL, but I got problems with the media reconnect.

Could you help me? thanks a lot
