VMS10HD Match Media Settings Question
 

I'm using the Movie Studio 10HD and I select "Match Media settings" and select a Cineform HDLink converted AVI file.

Select the "Maintain source frame format " in Cineform HDLink
.MOV 1980x1080p 29.97fps --> Cineform HDLink --> .AVI 1980x1080p 29.97fps

Then in Movie Studio 10HD I select new project and choose the bottom Video type "Match media settings" and select the converted AVI file.

When I open up the resultant project properties it selects the HD 1080-60i (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template. Souldn't have selected the HD 1080-30p (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template?

Appreciate any explanation!

This is actually a bad guess by Sony Movie Studio.

When I open up the resultant project properties it selects the HD 1080-60i (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template.

It should be the HD 1080-30p (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template. The AVI doesn't have interface info so VMS guesses HD 1080-60i which is not right.

So the short conclusion is, match format when creating a new VMS project doesn't work. If you are using AVIs created by Cineform you must designate the correct project template of HD 1080-30p (1920x1080, 29.970fps) template for 5DMk2 conversions from MOV.
