    Noah’s right.

    I would add that It may not be a good idea to not deal with them.
    Word of mouth can be a great asset and that happens more often
    with consumer based clients. They can represent a substantial
    amount of income. All of my “low-end” clients brought my business
    an extra $ 45,000 in income in 2004, up 20% from 2003. Would you
    rather not have that extra money?

    Give them a good price with a good quick and painless process such as a dvd recorder. Panasonic I recommend because of excellent quality, reliability and playback for the masses.

    thats not a problem right?

    since only dvd software or settop playback will
    display at correctly at 640×480.

    is it 4:3 material?

    If it looks right, then your all good to go.

    Procoder2 is the BEST and only way to convert
    PAL DVD to NTSC IMO. It doesn’t get any better
    unless you re-encoded source tapes to NTSC.

    You did good! 🙂

    I don’t think you can do that unless you use files that
    are the same exact size and duration down to the timecode frame.

    use some generic name for the file.

    make the first one Disc.

    drop your second one in on top with the same name.

    make that Disc.

    and so on……

    Thats the only way I can think of.

  • if you have 6.5 on the pc yes, I think you can.

    I don’t think the mac version supports mpeg2 output yet.

    You could export it as an ANIMATION file then compress
    that with an mpeg encoder software.

    Thats How I do all of my dvd menu’s.

    If you have apple compressor, it should have an mpeg2
    output module.

  • none of those will work. You need the one that says mpeg2.

  • If you already have the files as captured .avi or .mov movies
    I would just convert them with procoder 2.

    I converted some PAL footage to NTSC and the whole picture
    looked completely perfect, matching the original.
    It also took care of the audio too. No timing or out
    of synch issues at all.

    amazing product.

    May 26, 2005 at 1:24 pm in reply to: Monitor pixels – should they all work?

    The trick is to buy one from a place that offers no
    questions asked return warranties for 5 years.

    Also, you get what you pay for. the cheaper lcd’s more
    commonly have hot pixels out of the box. In the U.S. you
    could return it within 30 days at most places for a return.
    not sure the rule of the land in oz.

    I bought a Sony 19″ LCD with a 100 rebate and the whole
    unit cost a total of 600. I also bought the 5 year
    no hassle warranty. meaning if it has any hot pix whatsoever
    I can exchange it within 5 years and they will replace it
    no questions asked.

    I’ve had it for about 4 months now and its still dead pix free.

    May 26, 2005 at 1:15 pm in reply to: Maestro Sync Problem

    If the audio stream is not the same duration within a few
    frames, thats the problem first and foremost.

    Does it happen on a short clip?

    I would encode for 1 to 5 minutes and test that first.
    Probably not Maestro causing it.

    Try capturing the drop-frame masters as non-drop.

    Doesn’t make sense but it could fix it.

    Let us know the solution when you find it.
