Thanks guys. This is a huge help.

[Chris Anderson] “Should I use the ProRes 1920×1080, ProRes 1440×1080 or the AJA Kona ProRes 1920×1080 size.”
Probably 1440.
[Chris Anderson] “The rendering time is about 8hrs so i want to get it right.”
Do a 1 second test first.

[Randy Lee] “Premiere exports .AVI files, doesn’t it? What would be the equivalent of say a DV50 or 8 Bit Uncompressed QT, if I were to ask for that?”
Premiere does not always export AVI files. Premiere is for Mac too, and that works in Quicktime. I’m pretty sure you can export a QT from either version.
A DV50 AVI can be “re-wrapped” into a Quicktime DV50 without any degradation. There are special applications that can do this, I can’t name any offhand. Try Googling. You might not be able to retain source timecode though.
Either way you’ll still need the EDL. The only difference is you reconnect instead of recapture. Premiere can also export AAF files, which is like a modern and better version of EDL. Final Cut used to be able to import them with a plugin. Not sure you can still do that though.
I think recapturing is the easiest and possibly fastest way to go.

Yeah it’s a new feature that came with one of the ProApps updates. Thank Jeremy G for bringing it to everyone’s attention a while back.

We put off buying another Mac Pro because of the Nehelem coming out soon.

I just tried it. It worked but the picture skipped and stuttered occasionally.

Aaron, when you scale up, it’s a good practice to use the most mathematically simple value possible. So if 197 looks about right, use 200. If 135 looks good, use 133.33. Hope that makes sense. Also check the sequence settings and set motion scaling quality to “best”.

Guys, Edit to Tape automatically renders everything first, just like Print to Video does.
ETT and PTV should be identical. The fact that Steve had different results between them is pretty damn startling to me.
Steve, I would consider trashing your preferences at the very least. What you experienced should not happen under any circumstances.

Yes that’s probably the best way to do it. Compressor’s reverse telecine can automatically detect the pulldown pattern (cadence) for each clip.
This will only work with camera footage. If you edit in 29.97 and export/master something new, the cadence will be broken and not even Compressor can repair it.

Cool. But actually you should probably work with 23.98, not 24. My bad.
