thanks. you did see the second post with the file / chart uploaded right? Joe

Thanks, Film Joe

Thanks Gary,

We were aware of that for straight TC windows, but is there any option for burning Key Code or auido TC from synced audio metadata?

New try. Got the chart smaller in size. Hope this works.

thoughts?

Thanks, Film Joe

Elijah,

I tried to send a jpg and pdf of the chart but neither would upload. the pdf was not a recognized file at 64K and the jpeg was 600K and ‘too large’, then I made a flash movie of the one frame that would not up load. So I dont’ know how to get an image to you that is readable.

suggestion?

Thanks, Film Joe

Thanks, but I am not looking for a software calculator. I’m looking for a printed chart of resolutions (2K- various Avid resolutions – tape resolutions – FCP etc,) that can be referenced quickly to show bit rate and storage size for an hour of material in each rez.

I have an old chart taken from a site or manual, but it needs to be updated. Any ideas on printed references?

Joe

Thanks, Film Joe

Thanks, I already have that. I was looking for a summary chart not a software that posts the various resolutions, bit rates, and storage per hours.

Any ideas where I got the old one I have? Joe

Thanks, Film Joe

Thanks Walter. We do want to check all our variables that might add to the ‘randomness’ of capture degredation or playback resolution. Good to hear your current project looks good throughout.

Thanks, Film Joe

Gary,

That is good to know. So you think the 90%/10% random quality issue reported earlier by Walter is due to this, or is it a factor of the compression itself? Your insight seems to be more logical.

Is the file affected when it is created or just on playback? For instance we have 2 MacPros, one Quad 3Ghz 4GRam and one Eight core 2.8GHz 4GRam. Do you think ProRes created on one is inferior quality to a file created on the other? What is the minimum needed for PB or record of ProRes HQ? Is it a Ram issue? I thought all Intels would play a file but knew G5s would not create a file.

Your thoughts on the system limits would be helpful. Joe

Thanks, Film Joe

Thanks Jeremy, I will check that. Joe

Thanks, I had never seen that before. Very interesting. We’ve been tranfering film to ProRes for some time and never noticed it before this time. So you think it has to do with the fact that it can not encode detailed images fast enough in real time, but a render is cleaner?

Thanks, Film Joe
