oh here is the funny part –

so my “regular” footage (real time) is in 59.94 and all of my slow motion is 23.98 footage in a 59.94 timeline.

more reasons to hate my life, coming soon!

i shot a feature with that same rig. i used 6.0 and had no issues to report of. my system is up to date quad g5 with 6 gigs of ram.

for capture there is a DVCPRO HD 1080 setting to use and then select the 1080 24p under the next drop down, pretty simple

i remember having to tweak an issue with frames repeating and creating a horrible look when the camera panned – i forgot the specific setting, but basicly the end product had filed the 29.97 product with repeat frames.

haha, during capture – the local panavision plus 8 here in houston said “good luck with that ” as they didnt have the systems for the 1080×1920 image i was working with

i had hell with some of the externals when it came to capturing / mastering. I used 3 lacie 2tb drives dasie chained on fw800. in the begining captures looked fine, and then i would get drop out and sync isues later. (we capped 99 tapes)

i beefed up the internal hd to 4tb and would capture and transfer at night.

during extended captures, give your hoss a break to prevent errors from overheating.

hmmm other advice? shoot me an email if you want some screen shots of the settings

excellent idea; i do the 16:9 letterbox for youtube, and stage6, quick question, to make the 16:9 setting in compressor what would be the best compressor export options?

thanks again
