How do you edit 24fps
HDV?
Steve Mullen
Recently I've seen several desperate postings on the Net
to the effect that, "I've just shot 100 hours of 24p on my new JVC GY-HD100 in Timbuktu
and now I can't find editing support for 24p." My usual temptation to
post a comment about the lunacy of shooting before one knows there is an
editing solution has been tempered by my frustration at the major NLE
vendors who, in fact, have not yet released 24p editing solutions.
Buyers of the HD100 have every reason to expect such support given the
fact that the 720p HDV specification was made public in the fall of
2002. Fundamentally, 720p HDV is essentially identical to the ATSC 720p
standard, with the exception of MP2 audio rather than AC-3 audio. The
heart of both is MPEG-2, also a well-documented standard. more>>

high-quality downscaling from HD to SD, the ability to edit HD formats

Leitch ships VelocityHD 9.1
with HDV, VariCam, and more
Harris
Corporation today announced that version 9.1 of Leitch's VelocityHD
nonlinear editing (NLE) system is now shipping. This new release
enhances the six-time award-winning HD/SD NLE solution with support for
the HDV high-definition format, variable frame rate processing for
content from Panasonic's VariCam, broadened standard-definition format
support, and more.
VelocityHD 9.1 supports direct IEEE 1394 ingest of both 1080i and 720p
material from HDV devices. HDV content can be mixed seamlessly with
other HD formats on the timeline. New processing for variable frame rate
content from the Panasonic AJ-HDC27 VariCam camcorder allows the removal
of the material's non-active frames while recording the HD-SDI input
stream, enabling support for 24fps VariCam content plus VariCam's
"overcranking" and "undercranking" for in-camera off-speed effects.
VelocityHD editing enhancements include doubling the number of
real-time, full-quality camera angles supported in HD multi-camera
editing from two to four. more>>
CyberLink PowerDirector 5
supports Sony PSP format, HDV import
CyberLink Corp., a world leader and pioneer in
providing integrated solutions for the Digital Home, today announced
that CyberLink PowerDirector 5 enables the production of widescreen and
high-definition movies, and the output of video files using CyberLink's
optional MPEG-4 AVC encoder or the Sony PSP-compliant MPEG-4 SP format.
PowerDirector 5's ability to import, edit, and output high-definition
video, and its support for HDV camcorders and native 16:9 aspect ratios,
turns home-video editors into Hollywood directors, letting them create
videos for playback on the latest TVs in 1080i or 720p resolution. more>>
