DNxHD 185/175 and 110/90 are also 10bit. Give one of those a shot.

Hi Perrone,

I think we talked a few months ago about Avid. I almost had gone to Avid back in January but didn't do it.

Now I am on board with Avid. I am working on the trial version right now; waiting for my Product Sutie box to come from B&H Photo. I am picking Avid up much quicker the second time around. I love it. And it has not crashed once unlike my experience with PPCS5.

I did not realize that the DNxHD 185/175 and 110/90 are 10 bit also. That should help regarding file sizes of the imported videos created.

Thanks for the information.

Only the 220/175 datarates optionally support 10-bit. DNxHD codec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In MC5, no transcoding from CineForm to DNxHD is required, plus you can use FirstLight.

Cineform:
 

Really?

No more transcoding? Wow! That is awesome.

Thanks for the information David.

I can't wait for the 10th of June.

Hi David

That's only for NTSC Framerates like 29.97. In PAL-Land 185x at 25fps is perfectly 10bit

Avid MC 4.0 and creating cineform files:
 

Hello,

I have Neo4k and the trial version of MC4.0.

I just learned today that I can export my movie in Avid to a cineform .avi BUT MC has a limit of only 2GB AVI files. :(

Anyone have a good workaround for this issue? I need to give a friend an .avi file of the video I am making for him so he can use it in Encore CS4.
