RE: HDV

["Jean-Marc Porchet" <jmporch(at)Softimage.COM>]

Just one little detail, DS can't read the HDV media or the new DNXHD thin raster media (1440x1080 HDV media transcoded to DNXHD) so you will need to transcode the HDV footage to regular DNHXD media and relink to that media before creating the AFE.

 

Hope this help,

Hi Magnus,

 

You could conform in Xpress Pro native HDV.

 

Then copy the media to DS, make an AFE and the timeline will link to the HDV media.

 

Have a look at the conform guide for more details.

Hello

 

Has anybody on the list ever worked with HDV footage in DS. I have a client who has shot on HDV and bounced it on to Digi Beta for the offline. He was going to online on our SD Adrenaline but he thinks the Digi Betas were transferred badly and wants to go back to the original HDV tapes and conform it HD in DS. Can DS take in native HDV? If not then any workflow suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Magnus Chisholm
