You cannot output to VHS via firewire. Only DV.

Like Noah said, I would educate the client. Ever get a hit on tape? Almost impossible with P2. P2 is flawless.

I own enough P2 cards to shoot all day and night. I also own the PCD-35 P2 card reader and can offload a full 64 gb card in 16:30. Tapeless is the way to go.

September 27, 2011 at 1:35 pm in reply to: FCP Log and Transfer Dropped frames

You do not drop frames when you transcode. Drop frames are caused by slow hard drives during playback.

FCP likes it when you have the complete card structure when log and transferring tapeless media.

What is your exact workflow?

September 26, 2011 at 1:01 am in reply to: What is best setting for SD video to ne projected in large hall (from ProRes master)?

Listen to David. The output from any computer MacBook Pro or Mac Pro is a “Computer signal” not video. They are different. As with each computer and projector, they each have their limitations.

My latest MacBook Pro can output between 1280 x 960 up to 1920 x 1080. Not all laptops are the same

I own a couple of projectors that can accept and output 1920 x 1080. Not all projectors are the same.

I would keep it simple and create an SD DVD and play back from a dvd player via component or hdmi. Do not change your aspect ratio. This way you are sending a video signal to the projector. Video signal will look better than computer signal.

You are looking at it the wrong way. SD DVD’s do not work this way. The maximum data rate you want for your 11 minute film is 7.0.

That will give you the best quality possible. No, if’s and’s or but’s.

If you had a Blu-Ray burner, you can use a higher bit rate and achieve better quality and keep the movie in HD.
