Yes you can, but as soon you add the timewarp, the linked material will be cropped to SD resolution.

Can you save the clip out as a image sequence in hd resolution, then link to the image sequence to get it into your sd project? That should let you keep the resolution of the clip but allow you to treat it with a timewarp on the timeline.

It is not a timewarp with a fixed speed, I need to use a speed curve on it, that depends on other footage loaded into the SD sequence. Doing the timewarp in another sequence will take me forever to guess what is the right speed curve I need to put in to the timewarp. Also the HD is 23.98, and the SD is 30.

 

You mean to timewarp on another sequence and then load that HD sequence into the SD sequence? Or timewarp on a HD sequence, render, export, import and edit? I tried saving the HD timewarp sequence as a reference Clip, and load it in to the SD sequence, but the DS do not let me do it, I guess because the FPS difference.

Hi Victor,

 

Not sure I understand what you're asking but...

 

Why not create an HD Sequence>Timewarp>Save

 

Open SD Sequence>Load Timewarp Sequence into source monitor>edit into SD Sequence>DVE as necessary.

Hi! I’m working on a SD NTSC sequence, and I have a clip that is 1080 23.98 that I’m using in that sequence, and I need to time warp it, without cropping it to SD res. So, I’m dealing with the fantastic timewarp, that do not allow me to turn off the output frame size, Any idea how to work around this “little” limitation of the DS timewarp?

 

It is possible may be in the next ver of DS just enable that button? We can mix resolutions and frame rates, but we can not timewarp different frame sizes???   Come on!!!

 

 

Victor
