Ahhhhhh…. as a user of FCP 7, I called apple tech support. They were incensed that I did not have FCP X and declined to answer my question, namely which codec to chose for a HD DV to format. Turns out HD DVD no longer exists according to the condescending Apple guy. I trustingly embarked on a movie project originally rendered in 1080 x 720, can’t seem to get much from compressor and Studio Pro except crummy MP-2 dvd that does run but cuts off the intro music and the color looks washed out. I have rendered the disc in several formats and none of them play on my Phillips DVP 3982. I called Phillips andthey recommended
DVD 50 hz horiz res 720 lines pixels 1920. Vertical res 576 lines 1080 pixels. Does this format exist in DVD X ? Or (sob! ) IS IT ALL A DREAM, DOCTOR.
I just want to render my little movie about a dancing camel to a high qual DVD (NOT BLU RAY, mind you, but just something that fills up that big fat tv screen and plays on an ordinary player.
A FREE CAMEL MOVIE to the person who can solve this problem. Thank you so much, Deb Colony MD
