I’m not an expert on CC but from what I gather the CC is embedded in the .mov container. What are you using to export the ProRes to H.264? Also what container for the H.264? .mov? mp4?
.mp4 afaik does not support additional streams such as CC.
Might need some more information from you to figure out on where from and where to you’re trying to go. Codec is one thing, wrapper another and then the software involved matters too!

Hi Arun,
in adition to what’s been said already, test 1 is out of phase. Could be a polarity problem with the cable you’ve used.

Hi Sarah,
some things for you to check:
– Open the Activity Monitor (it’s inside the utilities folder inside the applications folder) and see if there’s anything eating up loads of RAM or CPU cycles (if it does, note the offending application and see if you can quit or force quit it from inside activity monitor. Sometimes rendering processes go a bit crazy.)
– Repair disk permissions. Open Disk Utility (again in Utilities folder), select the internal hard disk (usually Macintosh HD) and under the First Aid tab select “Repair Disk Permissions”
– Check the hard disk, worst case scenario would be the internal hard disk is failing. To check for this on the same tab in Disk Utility click on “Verify Disk” this won’t be able to repair the disk but should show any major issues. I would recommend to boot from the Mac installer DVD (or snow leopard dvd) and run disk utility from on there (it’ll show up in the menu at the top before you click through to do any reinstalls, obviously you don’t want to reinstall ..) to fix any issues.
Hope that helps,
André

Type:
rm -rf ~/.Trash/*
in Terminal, or holding down the Option key while emptying does a force empty trash too.

Hi Brian,
You already know how to get a still out of QT so do that then open the image in Preview. Go to “Tools” > “Adjust Size …” and enter the dimensions of 720×405. This will NOT crop your picture (assuming you shot in 1.78:1 anyways).
Saying that it needs to be 720×405 and 16:9 is redundant as 720×405 is 16:9 / 1.78:1
That’s all there’s to it.
Good luck,
André

Simple answer is you’re not allowed to do what you describe! If you want to use copyrighted music you have to license it. Much easier, faster and cheaper would be to use stock music from one of the many stock music companies out there. It will also make your work a bit more original as it’s “not that song again”.

I know that Philip Bloom used Transcend class 6 cards in his review ( https://vimeo.com/4205284 ) and personally I have only been using class 6 cards and there is no problem with that. Class 10 is supported but not needed so by all means give the Transcend class 6 a shot.

Hi Kristof,
the JVC GY HM100 takes both class 6 SDHC cards or class 10 SDHC cards. The ability to use class 10 cards was added with a firmware update but should be standard on all currently shipping models.
I’ve been using SanDisk class 6 cards for 1 1/2 years now and never had any issues. Others have used cheaper cards and have reported good results as well.
Class 1 cards obviously being neither Class 6 or 10 would not work.
The “class” states the transfer speed of a SDHC card so your question about the bit-rate is that it needs to meet class 6 or 10 spec which is 6 MB/s for class 6 (48Mbit/s) and 10MB/s (80Mbit/s) for class 10 cards. 35Mbit/s as the camera shoots would equal 4.375MB/s)
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Speed_Class_Rating for more info.
And yes, the CCD’s in the HM100 are 720p resolution that get scaled up within the camera (which does a really good job at it too!)
Hope that helps.
André

Second that. It seems said person hasn’t understood the meaning of a demo reel or a collage.
