    About BitVice:

    1. When you download it, there is a paid and a free version – what are the differences?

    2. What are the settings, that work best for you in it? There is a lot of parameters, I don’t know what to set, such as Color, Matrix, Transfer, IntraDC, Spatio?

    Thanx.

    As usual, Raphael, great information – thanx! I will give BitVice a shot.
    Usually with encoding for H.264s I am quiet happy with Compressor, but not with HD to SD.
    What about downscaling in AE? How are those Algorithms?
    Does AE do a good job?

    Greetings,

    Wow, that is interesting news. Thanx Raphael. But I assume the learning curve of Shake is rather steep. I know how to work with AE, but Shake? Might be time extensive to dive into, no?

    Interesting. Thanx. So actually it means, that all tape based recorded cameras write the information Interlaced to the tape, even though it is shot progressive?

    Why would I transcode a 25p Pal video into 23.98 NTSC when I’m living and delivering in a PAL area?

    I will try that setting. Till now it was on ‘same as source material’. Why SD video cannot be progressive? When I shot with my DVX, it’s miniDV, it’s tape and its 25p.

    Dear Dave,

    Believe me, I am fully aware, that an SD picture can’t look like HD, but there is still a difference between lower resolution and artifacting, dancing lines, extreme pixilated edges – specially around red.
    When I shoot stuff in SD with my DVX100B it never loos like that.

    Ando for the field order: As I wrote above – it’s shot, edited and exported in 25p – also in compressor it’s handled as 25p footage. The quality issues are also clearly of total different nature that line issues. I know, how those look like.

    I encoded in Compressor, then created in DVDSP an SD PAL project, build a menu, imported my m2v DVD video and ac3 Audio files – and build a DVD from that.

    That workflow I never tried, I will give it a shot.
    Never did it, because I was always told that compressor does a far better job than FC.

    Unfortunately, that cannot be the reason. I am sorry I forgot to mention: Footage was shot 25p, edited 25p, output in ProRes 25p and in Compressor encoded as 25p.
