Hello all, fist of all I want to express my gratitude. With cinelerra, we have a full-featuerd, powerfull NLE to our disposal. Great thanks to all the people making this a reality!
Currently, we are at the start of editing and postproduction for a full feature independent movie we shot last summer on HDV (1080/25i using a Sony FX-1). Some weeks ago, we successfully captured our tapes. We can play the MPEG-ts files with VLC and loading them (via TOC files) into cinelerra works well. We would be glad to hear some advice or recommendations by the experts on video formats best to use. - as we want to keep the material interlaced, we need to do some mask operations on halfframes, render this and reintegrate it for further editing. What format would you recommend for such "intermediate renders". (Sadly enough, the original HDV footage is alredy somewhat compressed and we want to loose as few quality as possible)? - can you recommend any "almost lossles" or "almost not compressed" format that works well with cinelerra (export and re-import). This is, if we want "almost full quality" for preview renders, but a somewhat reduced size (compared with raw yuv and thus somewhat more manageable file sizes)? - what are your recommendations as archieval format? - recommendations for proxy editing? (see my other post on this issue) any infos and help greatly appreciated.
