What are the best settings to log in varicam high definiton footage 16:9

I'm about to log in footage shot on a panasonic varicam hd in to my final cut hd system.
I have enough disk storage. I want to know how to arrange all the final cut pro 5.0 hd settings, so that I have the best possible work flow scenario and highest quality possible through out the edit project.

All depends on how it was shot.
720p24, use the 720p24 setting.
720p60, use the 720p60 setting.
You see where I am going. Capture the footage using the same EASY SETUP setting that the footage was shot it.
I am currently editing DVCPRO HD at full resolution. My workflow is laid out here: www.lfhd.net. Make sure to check the earlier posts for my workflow setup.

What are the best settings to use for the newest AirPort Extreme (AC wifi) with my optimum online service provider?

I have the current generation of the AirPort Extreme and a handful of devices that utilize the new 5Ghz A/C frequency. My internet speeds were blazing fast when I had first set it up but lately it has been lagging terribly. I was told that changing my dhcp did help, which it did it seems like it might be back to its normal speeds but I just want to know what are the best settings to configure for the airport so that I can get the most out of my service on all my devices? I'm using a CAT 6 cable which does help, I have a guest wifi setup with a wifi password which I understand will slow it down a little. Can anyone just point me in the right direction or just give me a step by step guide on what settings to configure? Should I really consider turning off the guest network?

I am assuming that you are looking to configure your network to provide the highest level of bandwidth possible for your network clients. If that is the case, the following are a few things to consider:
The Internet modem should support Gigabit Ethernet. That is the Ethernet connection between the modem and your 802.11ac AirPort Extreme should be Gigabit Ethernet.
Use CAT-5e or CAT-6 Ethernet cables between all wired connections.
Only expect 802.11ac performance with 802.11ac clients in the same room as the base station.
Eliminate or significantly reduce any forms of Wi-Fi interference on both the 2.4 & 5 GHz bands.
When streaming, especially HD video on your local network, use wired connections between the host and player devices when possible.
Other than the above suggestions there are no "magic" settings that you can make on your AirPort. Note: The Guest network shares the same bandwidth as the "main" network. Unless you have a network goal to provide this type of network, it is best left disabled.

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

You're welcome, and thank you for the reply.
2) Yesterday I made the subclips with the In-Out Points and Command-U, the benefit is that I've seen the clip before naming it. Now I'm using markers, it's benefit is that I can write comment and (the later) clip name at once, the drawback is that I have to view to the next shot's beginning before knowing what the shot contains.
But now I found out that I can reconnect my clips independently to the format I converted the master clip to. I reconnected the media to the original AVI file and it worked, too! The more I work with, the more I'm sold on it... - although it doesn't seem to be able to read and use the date information within the DV AVI.
1) Ok, I tried something similar within FCE. Just worked, but the file size still remains. Which codec settings should I use? Is the export to DV in MOV with a quality of 75% acceptable for both file size and quality? Or would be encoding as H.264 with best quality an option for archiving, knowing that I have to convert it back to DV if I (maybe) wan't to use it for editing later? Or anything else?
Thank's in advance again,
André

What are the best settings for ripping cd's in the AAC format?

I have researched and found out that the AAC format rules over the MP3 format as fas as sound quality goes with lossy formats. Example: AAC at 128 is better than MP3 at 160 as so forth. My questions are: What are the best settings for ripping cd's in the AAC format? Will I be able to burn cd mixes with the tracks I import into itunes after importing using the AAC format? Does the AAC format have VBR like the MP3 format? Is there other ripping software such as dbPoweramp and Exact Audio Copy that does a better job ripping cd's in the AAC format? Please help!

It is a matter of opinion, but I suggest 256 kb/s, CBR, and leave all other settings on automatic.
Will I be able to burn cd mixes with the tracks I import into itunes after importing using the AAC format?
Yes. Just put them in a playlist and burn.
Does the AAC format have VBR like the MP3 format?
Yes. You will see it as an option in the Import Settings.
Is there other ripping software such as dbPoweramp and Exact Audio Copy that does a better job ripping cd's in the AAC format?
EAC does a better job of correcting errors in damaged CDs, but for normal CDs iTunes does a fine job of ripping to AAC.

What are the best settings for a retina display image?

If we Export for Web then view it on a retina display monitor, the image lines look blurry and it's not as crisp as non-retina display monitors.
What are the best settings when intended for retina display monitors while keeping the file size down?
Thanks!

Mark, yes a DVD will play back on a HDTV, just the quality will not match the capability of the playback device. This is certainly the easiest approach though.
As the article you referenced says, ensuring that your previews are set to a larger pixel dimension than your required output will ensure maximum quality, given that you will more than likely have movement on the images in the slide show I would suggest going with pixel dimensions that are at least 1920px.
Let us know how you go.

thats way too vague of a question... best what? quality? size? playback?
best quality then use high bitrate, small size use low bitrate.

What are the best settings to make a DVD?

Hi!!!
I want to make a DVD. I am using Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. My video uses a image (i havent chosen the width x height yet because i do not know what is the best for picture quality on DVD, any advice?). I also use text which is made by clicking on Add Titles in Premiere Pro. Also i have a mp3 which plays throughout. (There is actually no moving video, just an image still, and the text I add which changes every few seconds)
My question is: For optimal picture and sound quality on DVD, what are the best settings to begin the project with? (i.e. PAL? HD?, etc). Second question is: For optimal picture and sound quality on DVD, what settings should i have when exporting? (i.e. Format: MPEG2? MPEG2-DVD? H.264? ect, Preset: 1440 x 1080i? PAL DV High Quality? etc)
Note: after exporting the file, i will send the master to a DVD duplicating company who will put the file onto DVD for me.
Many, many thanks!

To give you just a bit more background, for DVD-Video (well, if it's burned, it's officially DVD-ROM, but you get the picture), the Transcoding will be done to MPEG-2. For the best Audio, I would stick with PCM/WAV, which will be slightly larger, but with better fidelity. Note that with BD, you have some other choices, but fewer for DVD-Video. Also, even though MPEG Audio was optional in PAL-land, it is falling out of favor. The two choices are DD AC3 (a flavor of MPEG), and PCM/WAV, which will give you the best Audio.
With Adobe Dynamic Link, you do not need to be too concerned with the Transcoding yet. In Encore, you can choose the parameters for the Transcoding, or leave it set to Automatic and Encore will calculate the space on the disc, and come up with a very good Transcode setting. If you decide that you want to do those settings yourself, please spend some time on the Internet reading about "bit-budgeting." There are also 3rd party Transcoders, that some feel are superior to those used in the Adobe products. There are several recommendations in this forum. Again, you will want to study bit-budgeting first.
Good luck,
Hunt

What are the best settings to make an SD dvd from HD content?

I have HD material that i need to burn on a SD DVD with no real intention on playing in on an HD player, maybe an upconverting one. What are the best settings and preferences so it looks best when played on a CRT or HD TV?

Take a look here

There is no one haard and fast rule on the video rate, but you can start with the standard 16:9 presets and go from there (adjusting fram controls and rates as needed)

Mediafork - what are the best settings?

what are the quality-best settings in mediafork to rip a DVD to play on appleTV?

I am currently ripping a DVD with these settings and the ETA to rip is 13 hours! Is this normal? I thought it should only take about 2 hoursThe time to convert depends on a number of different factors which include:
1) The complexity of the source content itself
2) The duration of the source file
3) The dimensions of your target file
4) The target video data rate
5) Whether or not you are cropping and/or scaling the file
6) Whether or not you are deinterlacing the file
7) The number and type of filters and/or other adjustments being made
8) How many applications and/or processes are running simultaneously
9) The type processor your are running
10) The number processors at work
11) The specific application you are using.
12) The number of passes you are making
There are probably other things at work here also, but this should give you some idea as to the variables involved. Switching to the single-pass mode, for instance may cut your processing time in half. I usually takes me 5-8 hours for a multipass conversion of a 110-120 minute movie on my old G5 PPC. My old G4 averaged 12-15 hours for the same settings. My longest run on a G4 to an MPEG-2 for a DVD burn was 32 hours for a 96-minute Doctor Who 4-episode adventure.

What are the best settings to send recordings from garage band to iTunes?

I am recording voice only in garage band. When I send it to itunes to convert to an MP3, I need to know what the best settings are to avoid distortion and background noise.

I think there should be no noises or whatsoever added to what you recorded when it is extracted, but in matters of quality you can export it to your desktop in CD quality, in a format iTunes reads, once in iTunes you can convert to Apple Lossles, or WAV, which are the best for quality, depends what you want to do with it... Apple Losless is small in file size and sounds really great, but works only on apple products, WAV can be played almost anywhere, and sounds just like Apple Losless but it's a very big file size,,, hope this helps

What are the best settings in Compressor?

I generally have two main needs:
1) 16:9 films (c. 25 mins or shorter) with sound to be screened in museums/galleries. Not HD.
2) The same but online, just to give a flavour of my work (but pointless if it loses too much quality).
What are my best Compressor options? The films take forever to compress and I often find QT won't read them, or they come up with no sound.
I am hoping for two failsafe recommendations!
Thanks.

1) It all depends on what method is used for playback; if it's a DVD player, use one of the DVD presets. If it's played back from a computer hard drive, H.264 or an MPEG-2 Program Stream should work.'
2) For online, check with the site hosting the video to see which of the many formats they can use. Chances are H.264 will work there, too ... but always check first.

What are the best settings for Youtube videos using Camileo X200

What are the best settings to convert .mts files to Prores

Hi friends,
Trying to figure out some settings. I am a novice editor so please forgive lame terminology in advance:
I have footage shot on a Canon Vixia HF M500. I am editing in Premiere Pro CC on a MAC with OS 10 Mavericks. I tried editing directly from the .mts files, but it doesn't scroll through footage well unless I render. Also if I add any effects like a fade in, etc it wants me to render the entire clip. I think my best workflow will be to convert the files to Prores prior to editing. I generally output all of my masters as Prores anyway so it seems like the logical choice.
What I can't figure out is which settings to use. I'm converting using Adobe Prelude CC (which then uses Adobe Media Encoder CC). I installed a group of Prores presets and my four main choices are:
1080i, 29.97
1080p, 29.97
1080i, 23.97
1080p, 23.97
The camera itself has three settings 30p, 24p, and 60i. The 24p and 60i are both interlaced (even though 24p shouldn't be) so I use 30p. I'm pretty sure the correct setting for me to transcode to is 1980p, 29.97 but not sure how to determine that. When I look at the .mts files in Premiere it tells me they are 29.97. Do I have to match that when I transcode? Not sure how to know whether they are 1080i or 1080p. I'm hoping it's 1080p because working with interlaced footage is a major drag. Also, does it even matter? If it's transcoding anyway, can I just pick whatever setting I want and that becomes the new normal.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the response Johnathan. I noitced that videos converted using the iPad preset did look ok on the mini, I was just curious if having more bespoke settings would create videos that would maximise the smaller screen real estate???

4K footage to DVD: what are the best settings for exporting in Premiere Pro CC v7.2.2?

Hello everyone!
I am editing a big bunch of short 4K clips (XAVC in MP4) which will then go onto DVDs. The idea is to get as many of those clips on a DVD as possible. Using Premiere Pro 7.2.2 on Windows 8.
What I would like to know is whether I'm actually using the best possible settings for this case, because the video exported to MPEG2-DVD doesn't look that good. Or maybe it needs to be exported to a different format and rather converted to DVD format after?
The sequence setting are the following:
RED Cinema
Frame rate: 29,97 fps
3840x2160 (16:9)
Square pixels
The export settings I've been using:
MPEG2-DVD
Aspect ratio: 16:9
TV Format: PAL
Field order: progressive
Frame rate: 25
Video quality: 100
Bitrate: VBR
1, I've tried different bitrates, also setting minimum at 9, but this blows up the file size too much (as i mentioned, the idea is to get at many clips as possible on a DVD)
GOP: M - 3, N - 15 (haven't touched those)
Multiplexer: none (should i put DVD?)
I'm using maximum render quality
Have I given all the information?
Any help will be appreciated!@

As Ann has advised do not expect too much, you are going down a lot in quality.
Why are you also going from NTSC to a PAL output?
Premiere will drop frames to get from 29.97 to 25.
PAL DVD players read NTSC discs fine as long as they are region 0
Why are you trying to produce a DVD anyway?
A Bluray would be far better quality.
Also a minimum 9 is way wrong, c9.6 is the max in the spec and hence avoided as your system is trying to push the spec limits to close.
I used to use 6 - 7.5 - 8.8 in my VBR and they looked fine, now I am all HD.
