November 24, 2012 at 11:16 pm in reply to: mpeg choosing right format to convert to work in fcpok sorry for the confusion, let me back up. So i have a capture card installed on my pc to capture live footage from my xbox. from that i captured a video file thats an avi. i opened it a plyer called vlc which game the codec info for it
stream 0
type :video
codec: packed YUV 4:2:2, U;Y;V;Y (UYVY)
resolution: 1280×720
display resolution: 1280×720
frame rate: 59.940060stream 1
type: audio
codec: PCM S16 LE (araw)
Channels: stereo
sample rate: 48000 Hz
bits per sample : 16the mpeg i was talking about before is a free convertor program call mpeg stream clip, thats for mac and windows. im using this instead of compressor because it doesn’t import avi. but every time i try to convert it to prores or several other formats that final cut can import, it has no audio but no video. the only one so far that has worked is a codec called h.264, but as im finding out trying to export it from final cut, it has some bugs and doesn’t completely work with final cut. the problem im having with the exporting is that it only exports half of the sequence. and there is no in or out marks.
by now im just looking for the best quality, and that will work in final cut. the problem will fix it self in a few weeks when my mac tower comes in and can move my capture card in to that , where it will capture in quicktime. also this video is planed to go on youtube.
so is the best way to get from point A to point B?

i think were getting off topic here, i have no desire to use premiere, i just wanted to use my pc just for the converting step. but any way i got a way to link my my mac and pc over the web and converted it to prores but now im getting audio but no video , both in and out of FC, and there was video before. im wondering if theres a setting im missing in mpeg?

well my pc has 16gb of ram and 2tb hard drive compared to my 4gb ram <500gb hard drive, and i’m going to have to move the 80+ gb files between the two using a 500gb external hard drive, that and i don’t own premiere pro, so ya you do the math lol. is yuv equivalent to prores?

ya i saw that before while i was trying things, though i only saw it on the mac version, is there a way to get the setting on the windows version, because my pc has a ton of more ram and space than my mac laptop. also thats where the files are originally. thanks for the help.

it is grayed out in the blackmagic control pannel, so what would need to install to get the card detected?

is the format preferences under Edit>preferences called project video formats, because the only thing in the drop down box is native (progressive) and for capture file formate it only has H .264
here is some pics of the settings
