Nice dvd for a change at DVinfo.net

I could not be happier with the quality of the "HDMI in" recorded video by the x9.
This was half decently lit live theatrical recording of a Youth play "Snow White". I used 2 cameras, Sony AX100 and a5100 live switched with a Livewedge and the 1080p out from the Livewedge to the Hdmi In on the x9, recorded on a class 6 sd card in a usb3 reader and using FHD TS as the settings. The 1 hour 30 min production used only 5gb of space. (H.265)
Usually people buy a DVD version so when this ts video was transcoded and authored to DVD I was astounded at the high quality. Seriously.. viewing it on a 39" 4K screen it was at least as good as HD even though the dvd is only 720x480. Amazingly high quality.

What program did you use to transcode your ts files to MPEG2??

Bruce,

I feel like I just walked into the middle of a conversation...am I supposed to know what an "x9" is? I did a web search and came up with some Zidoo Android player thingy...please elaborate.

Thank you

Bruce,

The Cerevo is not yet available in the US (at least not at B&H) but I am very interested in this unit. Can you provide some insight on how this worked for you? Is this something that would hold up in a professional or at least semi-professional environment? What's the build quality?

Any other info would be much appreciated.

Thank you,
