I use both all the time. My notebook is a Mac and my desktop system is a PC.

Are you prelogging? Capturing on the fly? What are your 24p/Film settings set to?

There was some extensive testing and timing done with results posted here:

Toast can take two files – I think they have to have the same name and be of a particular format. Check the help for exact steps.

v3.5 of Media Composer supports timecode from QT import if that helps.

I usually export a QT reference to Sorenson, set levels to be 16-235 and encode. AS TC points out, many encoders ecpect RGB levels to be 0-255. If that is the case, select RGB when exporting QT ref from Media Composer.

Seems like you are describing MediaLog. Comes with the MC installer and is dongle free. Export ALE files for FCP, or TAB for a database like FileMaker Pro.

Media Composer since v1.x support DNxHD resolutions. I would suggest the offline be done at 1080p/23.976 at DNxHD 36. A transcode will need to take place at some point in the dailies process – some customers are seeing 3x longer than real time when on an 8 core Mac from 1/2 debayer which is just fine for offline.
MetaFuze eliminates the QT wrapped DNxHD state and the additional fast import into Media Composer. It is not the fastest transcode at this time due to some limitations that exist in the current version of the SDK. This will be improved in the next version.
14:1 is pretty much the standard SD resolution used by all features that do not cut in HD. Seeing as he has a Mojo, there is no advantage to DV 25 other than using up 2x more storage and is not as efficient a codec performance wise. 14:1 is not an “m” resolution and is still used today on all latest versions.
The only consideration is HD Monitoring – the Mojo (non DX version) will do a basic job of monitoring in SD, but is not a true down convert. He can always go full screen over DVI to see HD.

Ouch – You can certainly work in SD, but I would suggest 14:1 and not DV25. You will need to use M

There are specific Avid provided uninstallers in the applications folder. It is called “Avid_Uninstallers” Use all of them, even if you never think you installed all of the them in the first place and try again.
