Hi Jason, it worked! Thanks again!

Thank you very much Jason, I’ll give that a shot. I already did a PAL to NTSC conversion using Compressor, but I’m going to try your instructions with the original sequence, as I think the quality will be better going with the original.

Thank you Raphael,
Actually, the NTSC got edited accidentally as PAL footage and I need to get it back to NTSC. I’m converting it with compressor right now, only 4 more hours to go of 20. Sounds like that was the way to go, according to your post.

Hi Raphael, I guess that info would be helpful! This is old 8-bit NTSC video, captured in FCP from both 3/4″ and 1/2″ sources, very rare old stuff. The final product is a commercial dvd (which I am authoring with DVDSP) so I need it to look as good as it can, and granted, it doesn’t look so great anyway because it’s so old.
I did a test PAL to NTSC compressor export, and it looked okay. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Michael. I’ve now done all the available updates, and everything seems to be working except that DVDSP won’t recognize my previous compressor exports as NTSC. So I’m re-compressing a section to see if the updates affect it. Fingers crossed….

Yeah, I think it’s 6.0.1, I’ll update and see if that helps.
Thanks!Lynne

I didn’t wipe the system drive, but I installed FCP from the original discs immediately upon opening my new computer, would that be considered a clean install? By the way, upon third installation, FCP is now working properly, but DVD Studio Pro is still telling me that my compressor imports are PAL. I checked all the item properties and everything is NTSC as it should be. I’ll look into updates. Thanks Scott.

Thank you Sean. Can you give me a little more info? Conform 25 what in Cinema Tools? I’ve never used it before, I don’t know what you mean.

I know that they used the pro-res 422 codec. It’s the camera movement I am referring to, it’s not as fluid as it could be, and to my eye it reads “PAL conversion”. The frame size is odd, I can’t remember off hand, but it’s European widescreen frame size.
