Jad, you have a Tokina? I am envious of you (in a nice way :) I've been on the waitlist for 2 months at B&H.

Mauricio, I got lucky and found one in person. It's well worth the wait!

Hey guys
I just got my 7D and using EDIUS 5 on my 2 year old over clocked quad 3.2ghz PC ruining XP I can drop the raw 25p clips straight to the timeline and they play back realtime.:-) Great for basic cuts but it runs about a frame or two slower once I add a title. |

Well, I know this is a weird workflow.. But its works fine for me! No mincing(stuttering) when editing, and good colors. Isn't that what most uf us seek ?

Hey Morten,
I was a DNxHD user, but the side by side you showed has really got me thinking. I tried writing to this for one of my files, and it played back pretty good in Vegas Pro. I am planning to use this for the rest of my files, but my question is; how does it hold up in editing when you have several clips at this codec? Does it work at a similar speed as just 1 file, or does it start to slow or stutter once there are a lot of files on the timeline? Thanks for the help! Zach |
Thanks for beliving in my theories, hehe.
Im doing this edit right as we speak with 45 clips in H.264. I have not experienced any form of stuttering or slow speed when edit. You can also save the files as 50% without any BIG lossless data. I tried convert the same file twice, but used 50% quality for last one,- I could not see the big difference. Files will go from 40MB to 10MG or less. That also helps when editing.. But of course, everyone wants the best quality possible, so it's up to you and your PC :) |
Good to know. I'll probably keep the files at full size since I'm editing a short for film festivals, so quality is the most important. This is just screwing with my mind that I'm writing the file to the same format it's shot natively, the files lose no visible quality, and are about the same size as the RAW files, but for some reason the new ones edit quite smoothly. One of those things you gotta see to believe! Thanks again!

I sometimes use canopus edius, and that at least seems to better accept different formats, but I'm not sure how theoutput works. Anybody use it? Oh and also, what's the best put out format for HD? I have a job that will end up on a projector, and I don't want to screw it up... maybe two or three options I can give? |

Thank you Perrone, shortly after I posted I realized that by googling I could probably get it.
So I did and installed it etc. Then I tried a conversion, first in avi, which didn't work, and then in mov, which played fine on quicktime and on the preview on premiere, but on the main timeline came out like colored dots, like that interference (don't know the name in english)... Why oh why? |

Here it is.
It's CS3 though, I'm installing CS4 later this afternoon... Any thoughts on why? Oh, and I did try to render the work area, but of course wouldn't and it would tell me unknown error. If somebody has any ideas on how to proceed for the final output on Canopus, that is fine for me, it seems like Edius is less "picky" than Premiere on which formats it accepts. http://i45.tinypic.com/1zxff6.jpg |
Yes, I've seen this before.
Can you do a screenshot of SPECIFICALLY what settings you used to encode the .MOV file? A screenshot of that would be terrific and very helpful. |

Here you go...let me know your thoughts... meanwhile I'm installing CS4 and hoping for better luck with that... |
