It is being delivered in 4:3. I am cropping and re-framing. No point in doing it in 16:9. It was not shot with that in mind.

If I load the preset for ProRes422 NTSC, the video displays properly in 4:3 and I get some realtime (green bar), but the preset adds DV properties (lower field interlaced and rectangular pixel aspect ratio), so it’s essentially a DV sequence except it’s rendering in ProRes, I guess.

Yeah, that makes the most sense. I’ve been fooling around with it, and I can’t seem to find the right combination of settings. In the sequence settings, I have selected Pro=Res 422, square pixels, Field Dominance/None, but I am befuddled as to what to choose for Frame Size / Aspect ratio. NTSC 4:3 or CCIR 601 NTSC, Etc., Etc? I’m getting some strangely elongated images on my monitor.
Also, no matter what I do, I’m getting the red bar, so I can’t play my timeline without rendering. If I edit in a DV sequence, I at least get some realtime. Now, If I start with a DV sequence, and just change the compressor to Pro-Res, that seems to work pretty well.

Drag & Drop should work, but the best way is to use the Clip Browser. Go to Preferences & select “Perform CRC Check,” which checks the footage to make sure it is copying properly, and select Copy All from the drop-down menu.

OK, so what percentage of your full editing-rate is fair to charge for a straight capture or batch capture?
What about for encoding the DVD? -
God Idea, Walter. I’ll head over there.

Great! Thank you David. What would I do without the Cow?

iDVD is re-encoding your file. You should export a Quicktime reference movie from FCP and take that into iDVD. Better to use Studio Pro for such things.

No, in fact you will be better off, if you keep the media on your external drive.

Joe,
Just curious….
Have you read the EX manual? Start with page 113.
