Mac and Cineform capture question
I am considering Cineform as my codec/solution of choice for work in HD sourced from my JVC GY-HD200UB HDV camcorder (in 720P60). Today, I am working on an iMac but will own a Mac Pro by the end of post on the project I'm working on currently.
After perusing the Cineform site, I am still unsure on a couple of points: -Can I capture DIRECTLY to Cineform? Or do I need to transcode from HDV native or ProRes? -Can I capture via FireWire at this point or do I need a dedicated capture card (like the AJA IO HD or a Decklink solution)? -Does Cineform behave like a QuickTime codec implementation (ie. Everything render related happens within the FCP and not an external solution)? -Can I use my white iMac 2.16GHz Intel CoreDuo (see FireWire capture question above) to capture to external Hard Drive and begin editing or shall I wait until I have the desktop Mac? -Do I end up with clips with camera accurate timecode? Thanks in advance! |

THANK YOU David. I've been cruising through the Cineform site and couldn't seem to figure out how the workflow was supposed to, um... work.
I'll wait out the full Mac solution but this sure looks IMPRESSIVE! |
