HDR-FX1 & Avid Liquid: Import M2V
Hey guys, I need some help.
I recently just got my FX1 (after fighting for 3 days with B&H - but they finally got it right) and when I capture video with Liquid it saves the movie as a *.m2v file for video and two seperate *.wav files for sound... what is up with that? I figured it would capture it as a *.m2t file. What am I doing wrong here? |
I believe that's what it always does. That's the video and audio extracted from the .m2t source.
|
Thanks Mark, but how do I make it into a *.m2t file?

This is conjecture, but I think that what speeds up editing with the Liquid engine. I would like to know if anyone can confirm this ? |

Since this would be unacceptable for editors, I think almost all footage would end up being re-encoded at some stage - or certainly at the output/export stage. |
You don't want m2t in Liquid.
Transport streams are just that, and so Avid sets up the capture to recognize the stream as an elementary stream, which *can* provide for more efficiency. |
Thanks for the responses everyone. I'm glad to hear that my Liquid is doing what it's supposed to.

I've had much better luck going from Xpress m2t to Liquid m2v. In fact, my workflow now is edit in Xpress (720/30p) xfer to Liquid for finishing, color correction and output to pratically anything. Of course I edit 24p in Liquid because ... well you know why. |
