I´m wondering the same. I work for a small university tv station and they´re finally migrating to digital (I´m from Costa Rica, we still haven´t done the analog switch-off -I think no one knows when it is going to happen-) and they´re not sure of which format editors should use.

I have many different questions (and I hope someone could help me with them), for example:

Considering that it is a small station with little storage capacity, which would be a good format to save programs in HD? I mean, many people say ProRes (which brings the question of a similar format for those working on Windows), but it can take up a lot of a space in a storage dock, especially when those programs probably won´t air anymore and are saved for video library purposes only.

Some others say that if you don´t have ProRes you could use Avid´s DNxHD, I´ve been doing some tests and I think it works great, but the smallest target bit rate I have is 36 mbps 8 bit.

Which brings me to the next (and final) question: What about BitRates for Broadcast? I read once that most broadcasting stations won´t do ok with big bitrates. Is this right? Which is a good target number for HD broadcast?

Thanks

Hi! The movie seems fine when I play it on the preview window of Premiere, in my PC monitor. But when I burn it and watch it on a TV Screen, it looks smaller. I have seen it in three different Tv sets, with 3 different DVD players. 🙁

Thanks for your help
