Thanks for the help.

Neither Mplayer and MPEG streamclip work. I think I am just going to remind DG to check my files if we need to do a mass distribution.

Thanks again
Eric

We are using Cleaner 6.5. I know its super old, but it is the only thing that is giving us the correct 4:2:2 chroma. I’ve already been certified through DG using Cleaner, but I don’t have any way of viewing the compressed files before I send off, which makes us nervous.

We own Compressor and Squeeze 4.5. It would require us to spend between $500 and $1000 to go to Squeeze 5 or Episode. We are not willing to spent that at all, we don’t need DG that bad. We’ll can just load our MPEG-2s directly to stations FTP sites. They are less sticklers about there color spacing, plus they tend to use normal dimensions. But DG seems to be the industry standard, so we can’t ignore it completely.

2.66 Quad core Mac Pro. 6 GB RAM. ATI Radeon HD 2600 Graphics card. 2 TB internal RAID. OSX 10.5.8

No luck with Movist. I get some audio, but no video at all.

I’m still curious about VLC. Every movie I play runs for 8 seconds before freezing. Audio playback is fine. The first 8 seconds is only Black with a 5 second slate, but as soon as I hit the first 1/2 second of the spot it freezes.

My compression is following DG Fastchannel’s upload specs.
MPEG2 Program Stream.
4:2:2 Chroma

I have to say because of Larry at Rivergate, and using his BluStreak software, we were able to get out Blu-ray replicated on time for our delivery date. Creating a CMF files was something we never expected when we began our Blu-ray project, but BluStreak made it fast and easy to deliver on a BD-R.

Brooks, could you be my hero and send me those scene files for the 2000 as well? We shot an event last year with the 900, but this year we have to go with the 2000. Hopefully this post finds you soon, because the event starts this weekend!
Thank you, Thank you!
