    [gary adcock] “While the Tape format is 10bit- no camera was ever able to record that bit depth.
    That was marketing hype.”

    What about films transferred to digibeta?

  • [Marcus van Bavel] “DVFilm Maker for Mac can add 3:2 pulldown. I believe it is almost real time for most SD formats and typical workstations.”

    There are tons of options to do this outside of Final Cut. What we want is the ability to edit native 24p footage in a 29.97 timeline and have 3:2 pulldown added to that footage – either automatically or by using a filter.

    [JeremyG] “Yeah as ProRes is 10 bit 🙂 “

    Is there a definitive answer to what ProRes non-HQ is? Is it 8-bit or 10-bit?

  • I agree 100%. I’ll try searching but this place is an ocean.

  • [JeremyG] “Using revisionfx works to add the pulldown back. Please send a feature request to Apple to add 3:2 pulldown to 24p clips in a 29.97 timeline. The 2224 is not so great.”

    My understanding is that they’re well aware of the issue, yet have no interest in changing it. Someone here posted some info on it a while back. I believe the way FCP works, 2224 is crucial to getting RT performance.

    You can play ProRes HD off your internal drive if you want. In fact, you could probably play it off an iPod.

    ProRes is only 240mbps. Firewire offers bandwidth of 400mbps, and a single disk drive is usually 40MB/s or higher.

    If you’re dropping frames, chances are it has nothing to do with your disk speed. More likely your CPU/GPU/RAM.

    I second everything Curtis. Actually I “third” it since he double posted :).

    99% of Mac apps are just apps. They don’t run in the background, they don’t alter the kernel, etc. So technically it makes no difference the vast majority of the time. If an application isn’t launched, then it’s the same as if you never installed it in the first place.

    Okay Sean, cease and desist with the Yiddish lingo. Nobody in L.A. will ever believe you’re Jewish, it doesn’t make any difference how many Yiddish words you throw around.”

    LOL
