A good download speed from a standard DSL is arround 256kbps

Anybody with a ten year old computer doesn’t need to download anything, clients and pros.

Videos vary in time from 2mins to 25mins

Yeah I love H.264 it keeps the quality great and compresses the video well but the filesare just a tab big.

I will try Sorenson, does it keep the quality?

Your saying once DVD SP gets ahold of it, it’s going to make no difference because after it’s burned in SD it all will look the same.

But you can see the difference in the quality when you play the movies in quicktime. I just played one exported in DVC Pro HD and played the one I exported in Current settings, it’s pretty clear in the difference.

Current settings is way better. Look at my other posts current settings is off the time line exactly what you have been editing where the other forums go threw all kinds of convertions.

So if burning in SD reduces quality then the better quality product will look better then the lessor product.

I would think

From this experince if it’s reconized as HDV it won’t support it exported as HD or others it will burn SD DVD’s.

Even exported as HDV 1080 60i it wil burn, I think when exported in these formats it converts it to MPEG-2 files.

iDVD will except the footage but DVD SP won’t and I think iDVD converts to MPEG-2 files.

Confused

No that makes no sense you can burn a SD DVD when you export DVC Pro HD I’ve burned SD DVD’s in HDV formats when exported in quick time movie but it won’t burn when export in current settings.

Down converting to DV NTSC defeats the purpose of even shooting in HD format!

You never learn unless you make mistakes ask questions or read.

Wayne Carney says in his second reply,”Most everyone here who uses HDV captures to DVCPRO HD or Uncompressed HD and then works with that to get around the HDV thing. When you do this, life gets so much easier”.
Refering to from what I understand you capture settings.

[Gempic]

He’s right as you can see I just put up a post as I’m working with HDV and run into the same problem it makes sense when you think about it. Why do you think when you go to true HD a Card is your best friend.

But another question is how come I get an error mesage when I try to capture in DVC Pro HD telling me it doesn’t detect that device? Is it as simple as changing my Audio/Video setup from HDV to HD?
