Cineframe 30 Settings at DVinfo.net

How should a PPro 2.0 project be set up for footage shot with Cineframe 30 on a Z1U?

How should HDLink be set up for capture with Cineframe 30?

All consideration seems to be aimed at Cineframe 24.

Premiere Pro should be set 29.97 progressive. You can create your own preset as needed. HDLink should be set to progressive encoding -- no other setting is required.

Thanks David.... just to help me a bit more, what project default setting for new project should I set for PPRo 2.0 for a Cineframe30 project?

Does PPro 2.0 actually use HDLink in its capture, or the main Cineform program settings? When adjusting some capture settings in Premiere, I noticed the HDLink interface appeared.

Thanks for your help!

ps - I was thrilled to be able to import a colleague's MXF footage the other day... what a great added value to your product.

When creating a new project. Select the 60i preset (which will work fine as it is, pbut progressive editing continue with), then select "Custom Settings" tab. Change "Fields:" to "No Fields (progresssive scan)." With the camera or deck connected, select the "capture" tab on the left. Then open the "CineForm HDV Settings..." panel. Set the "Frame:" to "Progressive" and select "OK". CLick on "Save Preset" and call it something like Aspect HD 1440x1080p30 -- then use this preset for your CineFrame 30 work.

HDLink is not used by Premiere, although there is a similar looking control panel.
