Hi,

Can you use Edius 5 for Canon 5D projects, if so do you hae to convert them first, is there any where I can learn about it, I searched every where but no luck.

Cheers
Mitchell

Hi Mitchell,

Yes, you can use Edius 5 for Canon 5D projects. Check out my work at:

cuongdinhvideo on Vimeo

All the video you see on my vimeo edited by Edius 5 and capture by Canon 5D.
I use Procoder 3 to convert the video to HQ codec and change frame rate to 29.97 after that import the video to Edius 5 ... realtime ;)

So does batch convert to hq work for you? Can you share your settings for procoder?

I have struggled with a work flow, but I guess I do not have procoder 3. Are there any other settings you use for the HQ codec?

Thank you for the reply, please kindly send your Procoder's settings.
Cheers
Mitchell

Canopus HQ is only 1440 x 1088, can I convert it to H.264 (MP2TS) 1920 x 1088i 25p as I am in Pal land?

Thanks,

I have been trying to batch convert but Edius crash's. I will have to look at Procoder vs neoscene. I wish Mpeg Streamclip would output Canopus!

Thanks,

Geo

I converted some of the 5D files to Canopus HQ using Procoder and it increased the size by about 25 times. A 89Meg files increased to 2027Meg, is that right?

By the way you can batch convert with Procoder but the problem is that with the setting that I used the files sizes are extremely large.

I using PP3 to do batch convert all my 5D clips never crash in my computer. Here my setting in PP3:

* Video Encoder: Canopus HQ Encoder
* Width: 1920
* Hight: 1080
* Frame Rate: 29.970
* Interlacing: Upper/Top Field First

That is it. Work like charm. Real Time.

I really don't know about it. :)

When you convert your files do they get a lot larger too?

Have you ever tried importing Cineform converted AVI files to Edius, does it work?

Cheers
