“If we shot HD and need SD DVDs, I cc for HD for an HD master, and then I CC watching the downconverted SD (with a duplicated HD timeline of my CC’d HD timeline) and then I make the DVD from that using compressor.”
Thank you for that info. What are your steps in downcoverting to SD. I’ve read numerous methods. Wondering what works best for you and what are some of the main settings you change in compressor to compensate for your downconversion. I never use defalt settings in compressor, but I often end up tweaking forever. If you have any tidbits to steer me in the right direction, it would be most appreciated.
All the best,

Well I’ve had so many issues in the past going from DV25 to to DVD. I’m very glad to be out of DV25, and this HD image is really looking robust, hate to lose everything going to DVD. I did finaly get good settingswith dv25 going bitvice and a plethora of other hocus-pocus. And now with the new compressor, not sure where to begin in finding the right compression settings once I do color correct. Perhaps hiring someone with a hardware encoder is the answer for the master DVD’s. But if I do that, is it best to keep on HD timeline. Or, if as Walter suggested, output from SD timeline, do I go with DV50 or perhaps a photo JPEG timeline. Any thoughts?

That sounds perfect. Thank you, I’ll try it out.

Thank you guys. Wow, I wasn’t thinking of it as a transition, so never looked in the transition folder. The transition Iris in works really well, however, I wish to Iris in (not fully to black), hold the Iris’d in image on a character for a line or two, possibly adjust the Iris at some points (creating a path), then Iris out agin (never fully Irising in to black).
Any more thoughts.
Cheers,

I actually saw that thread Chris – thank you. Though was wondering how much that is applicable to 5.1 and how much is applicable to Intel Mac???
Walter – yes, I have been looking at a number of software sites, but was wondering if anyone hyas tested the plugins in the “real world” on an intel mac. Many have upgrade options, yet many don’t specify the current plugins do work – just not as excelerated.
Graeme – Thanks for the update on those additional softwares.
