What I started doing is getting my draft all ready (cut, transitions, texts, etc.) in PPro and then exporting an XML of that timeline. But inside of my timeline, I have different tracks for all the footage that needs grading, usually tracks 1 and 2, and ones that dont – text, special FX overlays and all. When I bring this XML in to Resolve, I simply turn off all of the video tracks that do not require color. Also, I needed to do my 3D text and tracking in AE, so i tried exporting an .avi or MPEG, but when I brought that clip in to Resolve, it affected the color of the text as well. So my solution is to duplicate the clip on the timeline, dynamic link it with AE (replace clip with AE Comp) and then do all of my tracking with a 3D camera, allowing me to turn off the clip inside of the comp. so in PPro, all I have is text with an alpha background on one track and the footage on the track below to be graded. When I have finished coloring in Resolve, I export a DPX sequence. Going back inside of Premiere I duplicate the sequence that contains all the footage, just to keep it safe and untouched, and drop the DPX in where the RAW footage was, from there, I can export the colored footage, without affecting the resolution or the VFX. This workflow has been working for me very well. Hopefully all this makes sense. If someone has developed a better workflow, I would love to see it.

Here is the screen shot, you’ll see in the R’s and A’s that you can see right through them.

It says the codec is h264 and the name is h.264/ mpeg4-AVC
-
I downloaded gspot and it said I have the correct codecs for it, all it says is .avi

to answer to the 2nd question, I would stick with the AVCHD, HDV is a tape format and there is many quality issues, along with dropped frames and things you dont wanna deal with, stick with solid state.

you can, when exporting out of adobe premeire,which im assuming youre using, select mpeg2 – blu ray, and under resolution, theres an SD option for 720×480 in NTSC, so just make it PAL, boost the bitrate, throw it in encore and you’re good to go

hey it kind of sounds like youre going have to go in manually and move the attach points to the exact point of the track. are your points that you picked out of high enough contrast? are your search and feature region of the right sizes?
