A bit of background I am using Mac 10.7.2 and Adobe Premier 5. Shot my media on a JVC GY-HM100U and it was ingested by copying the whole folder into my computer. My video is 1080 60i the .xml file says:</p> <p>dataFormat="xdvb" </p> <p>videoCodec="MPEG2_VBR35M_1920_1080_60I_MP@HL" ch="STEREO_2CH" </p> <p>audioCodec="LPCM16_48K"</p> <p>Neither Premier nor imovie can't open the media and the error I get is that the codec is missing. I tried to convert my media using the Video Converter by iSkysoft but the quality decreased exponentially. I also tried Calibrated{Q} XD Decode, but it won't play in real time in Premier and looks choppy. </p> <p>Went and downloaded the JVC HD pro clip manager but ironically it doesn't recognize the media either and the error is that is not a m4p file. JVC site and other reviews say that there is no need to wrap or transcode and the media formats are compatible with Mac which is false or I am missing something.</p> <p>Does anyone have any advice how to get around this issue?

None of them will play in a conventional DVD player. </p> <p>Some very small number of regular DVD players have supported alternate formats, including HD, but this is very specific to your player. The more common formats here are DivX-HD and WMV/HD. DivX-HD is just a DivX file authored at standard bitrates specified by DivX, Inc. They work with hardware manufacturers to ensure compatibility. WMV/HD is a fully authored format, based on specs defined by Microsoft, using HTML and Javascript. There's virtually no authoring software, though, so it's a bit of hand coding. I had a player that played both of these types, before real HD standards emerged. </p> <p>Aside from that, you need a Blu-ray player or PC to play HD video. Most Blu-ray players support the AVCHD format on DVD, which is a subset and slight mutation of Blu-ray. This was created by Sony and Panasonic for DVD camcorders, but you can put your HD videos on AVCHD disc and expect them to play in most BD players and many PCs. The main limitation is that you must use AVC, not MPEG-2 or VC-1, and the bitrate should be below 18Mb/s. </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/can-i-burn-1080p-footage-to-a-dvd-how-1#post-66975 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 08:23:00 +0000 Don 66975@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I've dropped discs and only do standard def dvd when specifically asked to do so.</p> <p>I was the first hd shooter in my area, and as an early adopter, the first solution I found is still the best...</p> <p>appletv or other such hd streaming device direct to tv from computer ( there are several options). 720 p is actually hard to tell from 1080 on large screens unless you got your face up to the display for pixel peeping, but for most people from a normal viewing distance, thier eyes cannot resolve the differences between them.

Good quality mpg2 is able to foot-it with many more hyped-up formats. However, setting the variables as high as you can, makes a lot of sense. I have burned my stuff for years on the second-highest 'quality' settings and with a maximum bit-rate of 9200, with footage of 720 x 576 (16:9 widescreen format). From my reading-up on such matters, that just squeaks in at the upper-end of DVD compatibility, if the lower bit-rate is allowed to 'float'. The settings it takes up might seem alarmingly low at the bottom end-of-the-scale, but that is governed by contingencies and the nature of the footage being processed, the needs of more 'static' footage being much less, of course. After-all, most video formats only process the differences between frames (the 'B' and 'P' frames), while the scene is re-established, each 12 to 15 frames, by means of the 'I-frames'. So, my advice, (for what it is worth), see what the slowest processing option on-offer is, and give it a try. The assumption being, that the slowest and least convenient way of going about things, is usually the best in-the-end, with video.</p> <p> For my own part, I produce my finished features in both high-quality 'avi' and 'mpg2'. The mpg2, for home consumption, the 'avi' (strictly speaking smart-rendered in the DV-AVI package), as a hedge against 'contingencies', for the future. As I think I may have mentioned on another thread recently, I have 96 DVD's of DV-AVI footage which I am editing my way through, some of my early footage, of historical events shot originally on 16mm film in the 4 x 3 aspect-ratio, have been cropped and re-stretched to 'widescreen'.</p> <p> By the way 'Signmax', I use Magix 'Movie Edit Pro 17 Plus' for all of my work, currently; in preference even, to their own VSP-1.5, which I also have. A great piece of software at the price, which has me constantly wondering 'how-they-do-it'. </p> <p>Ian Smith</p> <p>Dunedin - New Zealand</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/can-i-burn-1080p-footage-to-a-dvd-how-1#post-66891 Fri, 01 Apr 2011 15:18:03 +0000 signmax 66891@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Hi,</p> <p>I am use Magix Edit Pro 17 Plus version I can burn the AVCHD Blu-Ray on a DVD the program offer this option.</p> <p>To do so you must respect 2 conditions:</p> <p>1) The maximum project length is 30 minutes or less.</p> <p>2) Need a Blu-Ray burner on the computer and on your TV need a Blu-Ray player.</p> <p>Main advantage is the cost of media $0.50 for a DVD compare $2.50 for a Blu-Ray and more easy to find special inkjet DVD to print direct on than Blu-Ray. </p> <p>Main disadvantage is poeple try to play a Blu-Ray with a regular DVD player and this not work.</p> <p>How to find a solution to this problem.</p> <p>I continue to burn DVD top quality to a DVD disk because if you move to quality to 14 and bit rate very high on a TV like a 50 or 52 inches the quality is about 80% of a Blu-Ray naturally B-R offer more detail and crystal colors but pusking to the maximum the DVD quality can avoid B-R media costing too much for the moment and incompatibility.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>YR</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/can-i-burn-1080p-footage-to-a-dvd-how-1#post-66889 Fri, 01 Apr 2011 15:06:46 +0000 SargeHero 66889@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Do you have <a title="DVD Architect" href="http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/dvdastudio">DVD Architect Studio</a>?

In it, I met again many softwares I used to be using during last decade. ACDSEE, PHOTOSHOP, ULTRA EDITOR and many others, some of them are still my favorite tools today.</p> <p>Watch the Windows Vista I am using now, what a similar looking between the explorer and the old ACDSEE classic. The so called thumbnail-view layout, which I first saw in ACDSEE classic, is nowadays a most common user interface standard.</p> <p>Thumbnail-view is not the only strong point that ACDSEE holds. <br />ACDSEE is still the best when the image browsing speed is measured. That's why I am still using ACDSEE as my picture browser, although the Windows now can do it natively(but slowly). This shows, there is always a chance to survive for an unique technology, like the image browsing speed of ACDSEE.</p> <p>On the contrary, when we turn to the speed of video browsing, ACDSEE falls into the common category of DirectShow filter based applications. ACDSEE does not decode video itself, so its video browsing speed is limited by the DirectShow.</p> <p>This gave an opportunity to the video manager I am using now, the Smart Mate for DV and DVB.</p> <p>Based on special video technology from FameRing, Smart Mate for DV and DVB is 20~30 times faster than DirectShow based softwares when browsing and taking thumbs of movies.</p> <p>I have a Hauppauge HD PVR DVB Box with a tuner installed on PC. I've recorded about several hundreds of H.264/AVCHD movies on my hard disk. They are .ts files, aka transport stream. Every now and then, I need to organize them, search them, bookmark them, share them with my friends. Just like what I did to my Jpeg photos. Further more, I want to edit the movies, like cutting commercials out of them, this leads to the most valuable part of Smart Mate for DV and DVB. It has the world's first H.264/AVCHD/MPEG2 frame accurate cutter without re-encoding.</p> <p>Smart Mate for DV and DVB not only supports frame accurate cutting on H.264/AVCHD/MPEG2, but also does it in a fastest way. It only re-encodes the gop on start point and end point, middle part of movie remains untouched. This gives the highest speed cutting while reserving highest video quality. So called, "Smart Cut".</p> <p>If anyone else needs an easy but professional management solution for H.264/AVCHD/MPEG2 movies from Satellite video receiver, DVB HD PVR, DV Camcorder, or INTERNET, the Smart Mate for DV and DVB is the software you must have. FameRing also has video manager for all popular formats, called MovieShop, I was only using the version customized for H.264/AVCHD/MPEG2.</p> <p>Come back to the ACDSEE, it will always be my image browsing tool, but not for the video browsing and managing.<br /> <br />To me, the Smart Mate for DV and DVB is an alternative to ACDSEE on video files. That is why we like competition, which gives us more and more better softwares.</p> <p>May be some time later, Windows will be able to browse H.264/AVCHD/MPEG2 .ts movies natively(cuts frame accurately? I do not think so), like the thumb-nail view it learned from ACDSEE. But it will never be the only software left, because the unique technology always survives, as it is unique. The customers will always have alternative and better choices.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mpeg-2-compression-problem#post-47640 Mon, 08 Jun 2009 07:44:57 +0000 chuckengels 47640@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>First of all you might want to try PSD images if you have Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.<br />Adobe products like PSD a little better than any other format.</p> <p>Then, I just don't understand why there is a problem.  From what you have said everything should look really good.<br />How are you burning to DVD?  Have you tested burning to a DVD?</p> <p>9 is the highest setting for DVD and should be fine for any DVD production.  Maybe you can tell us a little more about your project because something sure isn't right and it doesn't have anything to do with the export format.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mpeg-2-compression-problem#post-47621 Sun, 07 Jun 2009 18:07:51 +0000 mad_styles 47621@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Yeah i realize it has to be TV resolution of 720 by 576 or less, my problem is that even when i shrink down my PNGs to that resolution they still don't look as bad as when they've gone through MPEG encoding.

All content that is imported will be converted (or stretched) to the resolution of your production settings, despite the original quality of your stock footage and/or pictures. Try to avoid shrinking your pictures unless you have to. The quality of the DVD conent can also be set (HQ, SP, LP, or EP) with most DVD authoring software.

Even when I export it to MOV from Aftereffects its still not as compressed, but i need to keep the MPEG format for a DVD. <br />My movie is only 1 min 40 sec,roughly 50mb I've got 2 other things to go on the DVD which come to about 800mb all up, so I've still got 3.9gb unused which I'd rather use to maximise the resolution of my movie. <br />I could increase bit rate but apparently most DVD players can't handle higher than 9, surely there must be some way i can get better picture quality? <br />&lt;!-- End of post content --&gt; </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mp3-file-converter#post-40874 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 10:54:06 +0000 brandon0409 40874@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <blockquote><p><strong>Thank you Brandon!!

I just looked at my options, and under save as File Types are:</p> <p>AVI, DiVX, iPOD Compatible, MPEG-1 2 and 4, Real Media, Sony PSP Compatible, Windows Media.</p> <p><strong>I don't have AIFF or WAV.</strong> So, what do you suggest?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/mp3-file-converter#post-40781 Sat, 18 Oct 2008 11:15:31 +0000 robGRAUERT 40781@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> If all you want is the audio, I would save the audio as AIFF or WAV. If you still need an mp3, you can covert in iTunes. </p>
