ProRes HQ 1080i or DVC Pro HD 1080i.

I've been told that I need to convert my :30 video to either ProRes HQ 1080i or DVC Pro HD 1080i for upload on a ftp site.  They also said they prefered DVC Pro HD.  Will the Adobe Encoder create these file types, I don't see them listed in my choices... am I missing something?

You'll probably have to redo the export and upload if you use P2 Movie as the format; it doesn't create a self-contained file, but rather, a P2 folder structure.
Instead, select QuickTime as your format and you can use the DVCPRO HD codec of your choice there. That will create a self-contained MOV file, which I'm willing to put money on will be preferred to the above. The codec is the same as P2 Movie, just wrapped up differently.

  • Exporting of DVC Pro HD 10801i continues to fail

    I have an 8 minute sequence in Final Cut that is DVC PRO HD 1080i. I tried using compressor to export, using this setting. I did a test of a short piece of the sequence and it exported fine and looked beautiful. It even solved a jerking problem that I had when I had tried using Apple Pro Res 422 for export. But when I tried to export the ENTIRE 8 minute sequence using the DVC PRO HD 1080i setting it FAILED each of the 4 attempts. I cannot see why it fails. Why won't this setting work for the entire sequence? I have over 100 GB of free space on the target. Is there a way I can use this setting? If not, what setting would you recommend for the best quality output? Is using Pro Res 422 in compressor the same as using it as an export choice from within Final Cut directly? Thank you so much in advance.

    According to specs here - http://www.panasonic.com/business/provideo/AJ-HD1400.asp
    It says - IEEE 1394 input/output interface transfers DVCPRO HD native video to NLE systems without image quality degradation
    So the answer should be yes. However, are you on the PC or Mac? With Windows 7, some cameras/decks don't work well with the default 1394 driver, but will work if you switch to the "Legacy" driver already in Windows. Something to keep in mind.
    The deck has the 6-pin 1394 connector, not the smaller 4-pin usually found on camcorders, so be sure to have the correct cable on hand.

  • DVC Pro HD Quicktime files to Final Cut Express.....Possible?

    Hi
    Had a filmmaker send me Selects from a project I did with her in DVC PRO HD Quicktime format
    from her Final Cut Pro. Only audio will play in my Final Cut Express. Will she have to reformat and send again in a more FCE friendly format or is there anything I can do from the FCE end to access the footage?
    Thanks Mike

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    FCE HD can only handle HD content through Apple Intermediate Codec (1080i or 720p), so your friend must choose this codec to export his material.

  • When Converting DVC Pro HD to H.264 does it retain the 4 2 2 color space?

    I have some 1080i green screen footage shot on HVX200 on DVC Pro HD codec. My client is editing in Premier Pro on Windows and of course cannot view this footage. Now rather than purchase DV Film's Raylight so he can view the footage, he wants me to convert it to the H.264 1920x1080 codec so that his software will view it.
    So here is my question: When converting this footage, does the H.264 codec keep the original color space of DVC Pro HD? I want him to have an easier time of green screening his footage with the 4 2 2 color space of DVC Pro HD and simply wanted to be informed whether it would cross over in the conversion? Thanks

    H.264 isn't an editing codec. He can see it, but edit it? Well, I guess Premiere might. H.264 is highly compressed, and I doubt it will key well.
    Send him the ORIGINAL P2 files...the stuff you offloaded from the card. Premiere can work with P2, just not after they have been imported into FCP.
    Please tell me you kept the original P2 card dumps.

  • Problem playing back dvc pro video

    Hi,
    I'm currently having hugh problems in playing back DVC pro 50 format in Logic Pro. The logic Pro i had is in a mac with 2.26 duo core intel with 8g of ram. It seem that the video never play in the right speed. It's a problem on the new release of logic Pro?
    Thanks.

    No HDV decks will allow you to monitor external video from FCP through them UNLESS they are in the recording mode. So they just don't support this like DV devices do.
    You need to look at a card for this. Least expensive would be the Intensity cards from Decklink. I like the MXO from Matrox too for this too... does more output, but has no input... I use an Io HD for that... and turn that slow rendering HDV to ProRes.. much faster rendering, and visually lossless.

  • DVC Pro 50 dubb with 4 channels of audio on AJHD1200AP deck

    I have captured Digi Beta footage at Prores 422HQ with 4 channels of audio using a Kona card through SDI. Is it possible to create a DVC Pro 50 master with 4 channels of audio (the 4 channels in the timeline go to the channels they are assigned to) using firewire. I have never been able to capture any DVC pro 25 or 50 from this deck using firewire. I have only been able to capture HD footage. Also would this be easier if I purchased the HD SDI/SDI optional card?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    maybe this does a better job of explaining:
    I edited a film without syncing the sound first, and the video files only had 2 audio channels.  After syncing they have 4, but when I import them back into premiere it only allows me to use to of the audio channels, is there anyway to get them back in to premiere with all 4 channels attached.

  • How to export a DVC Pro HD file

    I have a 1 hour doucmentary that I've edited on a Windows 7 PC in Premiere CS5.   I need to get it closed captioned and output on HDcam.  The production studio I plan to use for this asks for a self contained QuickTime file, and they suggest the best codecs are Apple ProRes 422 or DVC Pro HD. I think tha t under the Quicktime export options there is a DVC Pro HD setting, but it doesn't match the dimensions of my project, which is 1920x1080  29.97 fps. 
      Are there any suggestions for the best solution to this problem.
    Thanks,  Jim

    Find out if they can take an Uncompressed AVI.  (I'd be surprised if they couldn't.)

  • Using DVC Pro HD with FCP 5.1.4

    Hey everyone!
    I'm planning a new project and both the client and myself would like to use DVC Pro HD for filming. I'm just a little worried about how FCP 5 will handle the gig. As well I like to know if any other gear such a Raid drives are necessary. I would really appreciate any advice.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Shane,
    You answered a questioned I posted on the apple discussion site about editing in DVCPRO HD, I guess because my gig is rapidly approaching and I want to get things done right I have another question. I hope you don't mind.
    I have a MacBook Pro 2.16GHz with 1 gig of ram, I was planning on using an AJ HDX900 or 400 for shooting. I'm going to purchase an Apple 23" inch cinema display and most like a Matrox MXO as you suggested I would probably need. " Buy what you need when you need it" or something like that right! You can see I have been reading your blog. Back to the matter at hand, I was wondering if my set up is fast enough and powerful enough to edith the material and do I use the Matrox to output to a betacam deck afterwards? Sorry my questions may seem a little or very simple but I am rather new to the industry.
    Thanks for any help,
    Guy
    PS I also mailed this to you so just ignore one or the other, thanks again and happy Canada day!

  • Do I need to up my rig for DVC Pro or XDCam?

    Hi, all.
    I've been editing ACVHD shot with a Canon Vixia camcorder, which hasn't been much of a problem in terms of file sizes and processing.  We're looking to improve our video capabilities and I've started shopping for a decent pro-sumer video camera.  I'm looking mostly at Panasonic and Sony cameras and would like to know something about how the DVC Pro or XDCam formats work with AE and Premier.  I'm assuming that these formats will produce much larger files, requiring more storage and possibly more processing power.  At the moment I'm running a Dell Precision 490 tower with these specs:
    Windows 7 Enterprise - 64 Bit OS
    Processor: Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU  5160 @ 3.00GHz (2 processors)
    4.00 GB RAM
    150GB HD
    I've been running CS5, but an upgrade to CS6 is on the way.  Project files have been stored on a network server, so the small HD hasn't been a problem, but I'm usually writing and reading over ethernet.  Our finished videos usually run about 3-5 minutes, but occassionally we might do something running between 20-30 minutes.
    So, my questions:
    - will this system, as is, be able to handle prosumer video formats?  If not, what kind of system or external hardware would I need to bring me to at least entry level specs for this kind of work?
    - will working over the network be an issue?  If so, what will I need for internal/external hard drives?
    - are there other questions I should be asking?  What am I not considering?
    I don't know how much money I can get for this, so I need to bring my bosses a number that won't scare the hell out of them.  I can probably bring the camera and assessories in for under $10,000, but I'm guessing that adding two new high-powered work stations might double that figure.  Not sure exactly where the line is.  Can anyone offer any insight or advice?  I certainly don't want to invest in a decent camera only to find I don't have the muscle to edit the footage.
    My thanks in advance for any help or information.

    Well, the deal is that I work for a State agency where I produce videos for public consumption via our YouTube channel as well as training DVDs and some other applications.  It took me about seven years to get any money to work with (used my own personal cameras until then), and even then was given only $3000 to buy a video camera, DSLR, lighting, and teleprompter.  After a three more years of whining, they've finally decided to "resource" our production effort.
    I suspect I can wrangle about a $10,000 budget, but I'm hoping I might be able to get as much as $15-20,000.  This has to buy a camera, accessories, and anything else I may need for the foreseeable future.  Renting isn't really an option and whatever I get now is probably what I'll be working with for the next 6-10 years (if I don't get a better job or hang myself before then), so I want to invest in technologies or formats that have staying power.
    That's why I'm asking whether I need faster machines to handle these pro and prosumer formats.  If I need to factor new workstations or other hardware into my calculations, I'll need to plan for that now.  From what I'm reading, it seems that it'll actually take less processing power to work with intraframe compression, but this may be offset by the much larger file sizes.
    By the way, I really appreciate everyone's responses.  This community has unquestionably been my most reliable resource for over fifteen years now.

  • Transfer vision from DVC PRO 50 to XDCAM for Final Cut Express

    Can you please advise the best/quickest method.
    Regards

    Hi Flore
    This a huge debate. There are very few advantages to the new AVCHD camera's and the vgery long list of negative aspects of AVCHD camera's outweighs any usefulness of them. They are designed for Grandad to pick up and shoot good quality pictures and not for editing.
    I have posted below the wiki address for AVCHD, please read the page. It is very important you do read it. It explains in depth about AVCHD.
    I feel the is no real place for the hard drive based AVCHD camera. There is a place for a mini-dv tape based camera.
    Life will be very hard if you go the Hard-drive camera route. Stay with tape.
    Tape is cheap, hardy and easy to move around. Hard drives not so!!!
    Take some time to read the following wikipedia page...PLEASE READ THIS PAGE!!!
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVCHD
    You will see that AVCHD is not all the bee's knee's.
    I personally hope it dies an extremly painful agonising drawnout death.
    AVCHD has no place in the professional domain.

  • DVC Pro Tape and DV tape not good in Final Cut Pro 5?

    I have a DVCPro tape along with a deck as well as a DV tape along with a deck for that.
    I started final cut pro and used the NTSC easy setup. I first captured the DVC Pro, when it was done i tried to play it in the viewer and it would play for less then a second then stop. However when i brought it down to the timeline it played fine in the canvas.
    So i when ahead a captured the DV tapes onto the same project. When it was completed i tried to play it back using my DV hardware to my TV but i would only see picture and no audio. ALl my settings were correct and the audio would only play on Mbox or the internal speaker in a G5. I thought i had a bad connection but the DVC Pro tape worked fine with audio. So i figured i go back to the DVC File i captured and when i pulled it up in the viewer everything is green and no picture what so ever.
    Can anyone please help

    #8 External Monitor Viewing.
    Shane's Stock Answer #8:
    A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
    Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
    Then go View > External video > all frames
    Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
    Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
    Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
    If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
    1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
    2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
    3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
    4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
    5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
    6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
    If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

  • White screen issue with DVC Pro HD

    I have a G5, have Final Cut HD and have upgraded to QT 7 Pro. I am trying to open an HD file I shot last year, which was edited on another system. When I try to open the clip, it is a white screen with audio. The movie info is as follows.
    DVCPRO HD (720p60), 1280 x 720, Millions
    16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
    Any ideas on why it is not playing? Thanks!
    John M

    ok... i just got this on mine. yesterday i was just getting ready to log subclips from fcp5, and when i opened the project file, i noticed that all my subclips i created and orignal clip where all red / out. so i closed fcp5 and went to the location of the file. i double clicked it, and behold, white screen, audio only.. so i had to completely redo the convertion of the orginal file.
    next day
    I was looking for a subclip that i had already extracted from the main file, and when i double clicked it showed the video. after that closed the window, and someone asked me to reopen the quicktime file again, i double clicked it, and all of a sudden the video was white, and only audio.
    ive spent about 4 to 5 hours researching with someone else on this issue and have yet to find anything such as a fix, or work around, but my video keeps disappearing which is disturbing. from what we have come down to the issue is deals within quicktime are below...
    we believe that quicktime is somehow changing the codecs DVC PRO and changing it to "Integer (Big Endian), Timecode, Video.." that is what it says.. and comepletely removing the codec for the video, and deleting the video footage, but keeping the audio in place perfectly. now, we also used metadatahootenanny to inspect a copy of the file and low and behold severe corrupt of the meta data in the quicktime file. the issue be with quicktime interaction with storage, or a bug quicktime behalf. we need to find a solution to this issue. we are currently in contact with apple tech support and hopefully we will be posting a answer soon.
