In a CS3 Prospect XDCam EX 1080x1920 HQ test project, it looks like I can import and use 1080i HDV clips on the timeline right along with 1080i HQ. The sequence previews normally, transitions, titles, and graphics that span 1920 and 1440 clips seem to work fine, there are no red render lines.
Is there any downside to mixing these formats in Prospect/ CS3?? Will it cause problems when it comes time to rescale and transcode the final movie to other formats??
I'm getting ready to start a 2 camera shoot (EX and Sony V1). I don't want to get deep into it only to discover that I should have shot both cameras in HDV. I definitely do not mind shooting the project in HDV if that is more bulletproof, but I would love to archive the EX shots in 1080 HQ if it's not going to be a problem to use both formats in the project.
