Re: HDV

And to do this you have to import the HDV in a "HDV" project into 
DVXpress Pro. Before transcoding to MXF you will have to change the 
property settings to 1080 50i. This enables you to transcode to DNXHD 
185 media. The transcoded media can be carried to the DS and added in 
the MXF storage that you should have on your DS. Import the project as 
an AFE into DS and DS will now index and find all the media. Now comes 
the worst part, the clips are very likely off by a few frames and each 
clip will probably have to be adjusted (up to 4 frames). Make sure you 
have handles on your clips and media when bringing them to DS.

Good luck
you will need that
