Thanks Mate

if you don’t mind l wanted to ask is it worth capturing the HDV footage into DVCPRO HD Does this make any better quality and color to the file, just a though on my side or is ProRes the best for HDV

and once l finish the edit is it best to just export as a ProRes quicktime self contained and make what ever l need from there with Compressor, IE if l want a DVCPRO HD file or something else

cheers Paul

appreciate your time and help kind of you

Hi Shane

thanks for the information and l guess your words at the end, something to take in to note are l have not been editing on Mac or computers for long most of my work is field based and still using tape and tape to tape edit SX, Panasonic Laptop editors though my work on FCP is quite good for the time l used it, but when it comes to the codex l don’t know a lot still quite new to me.

As to my ability to edit all my work l cut myself

But with this in mind have a look at my work credits and judge for your self as to my ability and years in the industry then make judgment. only seem to the fair way Mate.

Hi All

thanks for the information, but l am now a little more confused? can some one please explain in layman terms sorry to ask so much

Questions

I have HDV tape footage from a FX1 Sony (NTSC 60i l think) l want to edit it and output in FULL Quality to the WEB, Broadcast on HD TV Network and make DVD’s for show

1.HDV log and Capture, should l capture the HDV in Pro Res 422 normal or HQ as l see someone said that HQ is needed for HD output (broadcast!) in the (Color Reg 709) l understand that ProRes normal is 8 bit and HQ is 10 bit (larger files) please explain if possible

2.When l render the timeline what render settings should l use?

3.when the edit is complete and l wish to make a master copy to re-use what should l export the edited time-line as to file on my storage?????

4.if l need to give the edit to a Broadcast TV Network for Airing and they want it in HD what is the best for quality and Codex (example DVCPRO HD or something else whats the best) to Use. Do l need to take it from 1440×1080 and make it 1920×1080 then Export the file to give to them ( l understand they will ask and tell me what they want but if they don’t??? can l give them the Pro Res File if that’s what l am using, can they use that file for there work flows and time lines they use if not Pro Res time-line)? Do l need to change the scale to the 1920×1080

5. The HDV is 1440×1080 16:9 do l need to change to 1920×1080 to see the 16:9 format when l export the file for the WEB, Broadcast and DVD as the editing window shows the whole frame no 16:9 format??? do l need the edit window tho show the 16:9 format?

6. if l want the HDV 16:9 footage to be used for the WEB and DVD ONLY and not for Broadcast whats the best set up and export of file to be? to keep the best Quality (Still Pro Res or what ever l am using)?

7. What is the ProRes LT used for can someone please expain to me what it is and and how it can be used IE> is it good for News Ediitng ETC

Thanks in advance for all your advice and time

Thanks again for the info very helpful makes a little more sense

Pro res standard it is but whats the Pro Res LT for and do you know the bit rate?? not sure what its used for

last thing re the export if l am editing in Pro Res when l finish and finalize the edit what should l export it as ( this is for file keeps and master and also for Pre Compressor and DVD formatting and Web

as to the what are the presets, where is it broadcast, what’s the delivery format etc. ? question

its for broadcast in the USA we upload via transmit export quick time to MP4 the presets l don’t have with me now, but l think the highest preset was 256 file size and length of stories are around 130 to 2 minutes that’s for the H.264 question

all shot in DV Pal

thanks again guys
