Mixing JVC 720p25 and Sony 1080i in same project

Hi,
I am about to start editing a documentary that was shot using a JVC GY HD100 camera using 720P25 and a sony camera using 1080i (interlaced)PAL.
I captured all the JVC footage using LUMIER and the sony directly into FCP.
What I want to know is what is the best sequence settings to use, so that I can edit both in the same timeline.and have the best result.
I dexumed the m2t JVC footage and encoded it using Apple intermediate codec.
any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I am using a quad with 6 gig ram
but if I do that don't i loose quality from the jvc footage?
may be go the other way, then I can crop the 1080 footage accordingly?
I intend to deliver in DV and DVD.
Thanks for the response, it seems not many people know what I am trying to do. But the director/camera man shot the documentary using both cameras, the Sony for underwater stuff and the JVC for interviews and other out of water stuff.

  • What's the fastest way to edit SD and HD in the same project?

    Hi,
    I'm running the latest version of FCP2 on the latest OS and I have dailies in both SD and HD that need to be cut into the same project. The HDV dailies are 1080p 23.98. We will be finishing in HD but that doesn't concern me because we're finishing this on a Flame. I have worked in SD and I've worked with HDV but always separately, never in the same project. I know that Apple ProRes settings are supposed to allow you to work in both in one project, however, I don't want to have to render every 5 seconds. Does that happen? OR will it allow me to play a cut straight down with no errors with both SD and HD footage in the same sequence?

    I am going to kindly ask that you ignore what David is saying. The information he has given you to this point is incorrect.
    You can capture HDV as SD. The camera or deck you are using will have an option to output the footage as DV. Mind you DV doesn't look as good as HD, and if your intent is an HD master, this would not be the way to go. Capture HDV as HDV...or heck, you can even capture it as ProRes via firewire:
    http://library.creativecow.net/articles/poisson_chris/hdv-prores.php
    Just changing the settings to PRORES doesn't mean that you can now edit everything together. ProREs is a codec, just like DV and HDV. You can have your timeline set up to render HDV AS ProRes, but not sure what that does when you mix in SD on the same timeline.
    Anyway, FCP is perfectly capable of mixing formats without rendering if you are running FCP 6. You will need faster drives for this than the normal firewire 400. And with HDV, you would be wise to use an Intel Mac, as HDV requires a bit of processing power. While I have been able to mix formats with my G5, I get a bright green render bar as opposed to a dark green bar on my MacPro.
    OK, David did give one piece of true advice. You would be better off converting SD to HD before you edit. Or at least after you have locked picture (so you don't have to convert TOO much). Compressor does a really good job, and if you are capturing your HDV as ProRes, then upconverting the SD to ProREs will look fine. SD as HDV...ugh, I don't want to think about that.
    Mind you, ProREs requires raided drives. DV is 3.6MB/s, and ProRes standard is 15MB/s...4 times that of DV. A raided FW800 drive like the G-Raid would be the lowest you could go, but I wouldn't count much on mixing formats with that. either an internal RAID (MacPro) or external eSATA Raid or mini SAS would be better. I like the CalDigit S2VR Duos...and this great desktop drive from MaxxDigital. SOnnet has good models...

  • Panasonic Af-100 and Sony D7 in same timeline, motion artifacting

    I'm cutting a piece together that has footage shot with both the Panasonic AF100 and the Sony D7. I got the footage from the AF100 first so I set my timeline up for that camera. Any of the footage from the D7 that that has pans/camera motion seems to have motion artifacting when cut into this timeline. Any tips on how to address this? media converter, timeline settings? I've used lots of different footage from different sources in the past and not had this problem, but I've never done a project using both of these cameras at the same time. Thanks for any help.....

    Indeed.  Also could be some of the CMOS roll on the D7.  Do those shoot interlace?  Not sure they would.  But maybe that is what you are seeing?
    As Shane says, frame rates need to match too or FCP will shove one into the other and it might not look right.  Would look great in the viewer, but not so much in the canvas.

  • Web service and servlets in the same project...web.xml?

    Hello, I have a problem with my web service.
    I have a server, which displays a web service. I programmed this service with JAXRPC.
    I have a client, in another directory. I succeded in compiling, deploying and running the web service.
    The problem is that after I tried to integrate this service in an existing project. This project contains servlets. In these servlets, I'm using sessions.
    These servlets are on the same side as the server of the web service. Because of the implementation of my code, I'd like to use in the class that represents the server of the service, the same session as the one I'm using in the servlets.
    But of course, it's not working by itself. I know there's something to do with the web.xml files.
    The thing is that I created a web.xml file for the service, and another for the servlets.
    I was thinking of joining both of them in one xml file, but everything crashes then...
    Could someone tell me how to create a project with a web service and servlets, and mostly how to configure the xml file??
    Thanks for any help

  • 1. Working with DV and HDV in the same project     2. importing music error

    1. I am working on a project that was shot with both HD and DV footage. What is the best way to work with both types of files on the same time line so that I can compress them to DV format video?
    2. Also, I am having a problem importing music files into Premier. The error message pops up and says that it has an error compiling movie.I am not sure what setting i need to change to get this to work. I am working with MP3 files like I have done with past projects but nothing seems to work. Please help.

    i "I have never worked with with soundbooth but i changed the file type to WAV but had to use IMA ADPCM for the Audio options because I could not save the uncompressed type."
    Ellis,
    How did you "change" the MP3 - what program did you use? You might want to explore Soundbooth, as Aanarav suggests. It works well with PP & Encore.
    [EDIT] I use Audition, but think Soundbooth would be a good choice, as it is bundled in the Production Studio CS3.
    Many folk have problems with MP3 files, for whatever reason. You should be able to convert to PCM WAV from any number of good conversion programs.
    I use a fair number of MP3's in PP and have never had any trouble. Some others have never been so lucky.

  • 16:9 and 4:3 in same project -- Will they play in order i want them to?

    I have edited a project in 16:9 anamprphic. I encoded it using Compressor. I built a menu in DVD Studio Pro in 16:9 mode. I added the project onto Track 1 and made the menu(s) all 16:9. I also have a 10 minute piece that was given to me after the fact that was produced in 4:3 mode. This has to go into the DVD as well, but it has to go somewhere in the middle of the project. I encoded the new 10 minute piece with compressor. I imported it into DVD Studio Pro. I added another track and just made the track 4:3. The menus are still 16:9. Is there a way to link Track 1 and Track 2 so that the project will play the 16:9 footage, then when it gets to the new 4:3 piece it will play that footage, and when that is finished go back to the 16:9 footage and keep playing that without missing a beat?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You in advance

    There will be some beat missing unless they are on the same track (which they cannot be as 4:3 and 16:9)
    So you could go make it all 16:9 or 4:3 in Final Cut or you can fake it by either scripts or stories (will be slight pause)
    What you would do (using stories) is on the 16:9 track place a marker where you want it to go to 4:3 track (there will be a maker at the beginning of the 16:9 track by default) (you can also add marker at end)
    The make two stories on the 16:9 track, called first section story and second section story (you can name them whatever you like, just using this to try to make it easier to follow)
    Drag the first marker on 16:9 track as the only marker in the first section story and the second marker as the only marker in the second section story.
    Set the end jump of the first section story to the 4:3 track and the end jump of 4:3 track to second section story

  • Recording both PAL and NTSC versions of same project

    I am importing a series of movies to iMovie in PAL format. I understand that it automatically sets the format. What steps should I follow to ensure that I can have both versions of the same footage correctly (PAL and NTSC)? On my first attempt to record on iDVD I had not changed the setting to PAL (even though iMovie project is PAL). A warning message showed that there were conflicting formats but I recorded the DVD and now it works on my NTSC TV and DVD. Then I changed the iDVD setting to PAL and made another copy. When I check the DVD's under Window>Movie Info (Quicktime) they seem to be in the correct format. It happened by accident but I understand that you should export your movie from iMovie in the new converted format in order to record a DVD in such format. I accidentally bypassed that step and I wonder if the quality has been lowered. Has anyone experienced this also? Should I do the same to save me an extra step? Thanks for feedback on this.
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    The conversion from PAL to NTSC (or NTSC to PAL) is a non-trival task.
    In the case of PAL to NTSC, not only must the frame size be changed from 720x576 pixels to 720x480 pixels (fairly easy resizing), but the frame rate must be changed from 25 frames/second to 29.97 frames/sec (this frame rate change is NOT easy). iDVD/QuickTime seem to simply duplicate an occasional frame to go from 25 to 29.97 fps (or delete an occasional frame going from 29.97 to 25 fps) - this technique can cause the converted movie to be rather jerky.
    You will probably get a better conversion use JES Deinterlacer at http://www.xs4all.nl/~jeschot/home.html as mentioned by Bengt

  • HostApp and Applet in the same project space?!

    Hello,
    I am using EclipseJCDE for the Applet side and jCardSim for the host application side.
    I wonder if I setup 2 packages, one for each side.
    As you know, I can't include Java SE (jre7) for the Applet.
    When I encompass both applications in one project space, the host application side cannot find certain standard functions
    But when I separate them into 2 project spaces, how do I make them talk?
    Thanks

  • HD 1080i  and  HD 1080p on the same project????

    Hello everyone.
    I am running with Finalcust 6. I need to buy a new camera. I do have the Canon HV30. Can I import in the same project footage with the format HD1080i  and  HD 1080p from different cameras?
    I dont know if I need to buy this camera:

    I am really happy with my HV30 results. And I am afraid to have some problem to work with 2 differents types. And if I can work with 1080i and 1080p in the same project, what will be the results?
    Thanks alot
    Fabricio Giugni

    Avoid mixing them if you can. If you do have both edit in 1080i to maintain the resolution of that media. Anything that's 1080p and needs to be rendered will become interlaced.

  • Can an editor and I work on the same project, at the same time in PPCC?

    I'm trying to figure out if two people can edit a project in live time... I'm currently struggling with the 20gb cloud limit for my projects and I think I'm just going to bring an in house editor into the mix. 
    Can he and I edit the same project from a NAS drive?
    ---Trav

    As far as I know, "regular" Premiere Pro does not have any provision for the kind of file locking/unlocking required for 2 people to edit the same project... so if YOU save an edit and your other person saves after you, your edit is going to be overwritten and lost

  • Is there a way to "mix" the nodes and leaves of the tree so if they are at the same level, they will display in a specified order.

    Is there a way to "mix" the nodes and leaves of the tree so that even if they are at the same level (1,2,3...), they will display in a specified order (via sort sequence, alphabetical, etc.).
    History:
    We are using the Tree UI element to display/manage a material bom interface. We seem to be running into an issue with displaying the nodes/leaves of the tree.. regardless of the order that the context is built (which is currently the order of the exploded BOM from from CS_BOM_EXPL_MAT_V2), the bom is displayed with the nested boms at the top of each level and the single materials below them. For example. If  TK1 contains Material1, Material2, Material3, Kit1(containing component1, comp2, comp3), Material4, Kit2(containing comp4, comp5, comp6), and Material5 (in this order), the tree will display with the A level node as TK1, the next node as Kit1 (with its subleaves of comp1,comp2,comp3), Kit2(with subleaves of comp4,comp5,comp6), THEN Material1, material2, material3, material4, material5.  Our users are adamant about the items displaying in the correct order (which should be alphabetical based on the description for one report and by location for purposes of inventory for another). I've searched but not been able to locate a similar question. If I've missed it, please point me in the right direction. The users want the tree,  not a "tree" table.  This is our first attempt at the tree, so maybe we're missing something basic?
    TK1
    -Mat1
    -Mat2
    -Mat3
    -Kit1
    --Comp1
    --Comp2
    --Comp3
    -Mat4
    -Kit2
    --Comp4
    --comp5
    --comp6
    -Material5
    displays as
    TK1
    -Kit1
    --Comp1
    --Comp2
    --Comp3
    -Kit2
    --Comp4
    --Comp5
    --Comp6
    -Mat1
    -Mat2
    -Mat3
    -Mat4
    -Mat5

    co-workers said example picture is misleading.. we can make the order work if everything is a "folder" but not a mix of "folders" and "files" (if making a visual reference to the windows browser). i.e - a file is represented as an empty folder.
    TK1    
    . Mat1
    . Mat2
    . mat3
    > kit1   
    .. comp1
    .. comp2
    .. comp3
    . mat4
    > kit2
    .. comp4
    .. comp5
    .. comp6
    . mat5
    displays at
    TK1
    > kit1
    .. comp1
    .. comp2
    .. comp3
    > kit2
    .. comp4
    .. comp5
    .. comp6
    . mat1
    . mat2
    . mat3
    . mat4
    . mat5
    we can make it work if everything is a folder. This is our current workaround.
    TK1
    > mat1
    > mat2
    > mat3
    v kit1 (when expanded)
    .. comp1
    .. comp2
    .. comp3
    > mat4
    > kit2 (when not expanded)
    > mat5

  • I would like to save footage to a hard drive and stiill be able ot edit the footage. I would like to reuse the cards on the  same project. Is this a sensible option. Camera JVC  GY-HM100

    Hello I wonder if anyone would be able to help.
    I have a JVC GY-HM100. I have footage from a ongoing project saved on SDHC cards. I want to save money by reusing the cards while i carry on working on the same project.  I wondered if I could save the footage from the SDHC card too a hard drive ; delete the footage from the cards and reuse them. would i still be able to edit the footage stored on the hard drive alongside the footage which will be imported straight from the camera..  I have heard that this camera works well with final cut pro but if the info is saved to a hard drive first and subsequent footage is straight from the camra and SDHC cards will it work or is it a false economy to reuse the cards.
    Hope that makes sense
