oh right, i didn’t realise that would be a problem. how about if i capture the hdv as prores422 1440×1080 25fps, and convert the avchd in toast to prores422 1440×1080 25fps?

how would you go about getting this onto DVD?

as im sure you can tell, im a bit of a novice at all of this!

[Mark Lewis]

sorry yes i forgot to put that in the original post

i’m going to try doing what you say, and convert it all to prores. will burn a little bit to dvd and see if that looks better than having everything as hdv

thanks for the help

Hi Rafael,
I don’t know any other way of converting the footage other that using toast- log and transfer doesn’t work for some reason

It has to be converted as I need all the material to be the same codec etc (as i am doing multicam)

So do you think I should convert the AVCHD to ProRes422 in Toast? and capture the HDV from the Z1 as ProRes422?

and edit in a proress422 sequence?

I’m not sure about my delivery format.. I just need to get it onto DVD..

thanks, James

thanks, 1920×1080 is what i was thinking of using

what exactly do you mean by delivery requirements? (sorry im a bit new to this!. I’ll be putting it onto DVD once edited…

Yep thats what i’m going to do, but they will still have different frame sizes… which frame size would be best to convert to?
thanks, James
