DSE 5 #2 August 29, 2007 Aahhhsoo my young camera dude...not only possible, but wonderful There is zero difference in resolution when dealing with HD modes for PAL and NTSC. In fact, there no longer is a PAL nor NTSC when dealing with HD; it's all ATSC, or "Advanced Television Standards Committee stuff. All you're doing is converting 50i to 60i or 25p to 30p. Fortunately, it's very, very easy. Just import the 50i AIC footage to a 60i sequence or project. Output. Done. Zero quality loss. You *might* see some slight motion blurring due to the added frames, depending on the content. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 5 #6 November 5, 2007 Navigate to the Final Cut Pro menu, and select (easy setup). Then choose DV Pal. Create a new sequence, and then drag your clips to the new sequence. Then you be able to play your clips within the red render bars. You can also do the conversion in Compressor. Rather than re-write the wheel, I'll send you to KenStone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
