FINALLY!
200kbps+ downloading. Thanks Chris. *smile* - ShannonRawls.com |
Wait a minute....Are any of these converted to .WMV files for us PC users since PC's wont play any of the HVX200 footage.
|
these are the same files for MacOS
|
which ones do we PC users download? dont want to download 400MB (waste ur bandwidth) to find out it a MAC clip...
|
Nothing is. I'm going to do what Jeff metion in other thread to prepare the files for windows users, but if I do that, I can't go out to shoot.
What do people think about what I shot so far? I know they are not professionally shot, but am I providing enough variations for people to evaluate the cam well? Then, I will work on Windows stuff and when the sun goes down, I will do the night shooting. |

Screw the windows users Kaku...go get that footage!!!!!!
And what do I think of what you've done so far???? I think.... and this is just my opinion... that you.... Kaku Ito.... ARE AWESOME!!!! And I appreciate everything you do for the Digital Video Community. It's hard to find unbiased opinions like yours 'round these parts. But that's just me. - ShannonRawls.com |
If somebody can do the conversions then I can host those clips too.
|
And YOU!!!
Mr. CHRIS "Smackdown" HURD! You're the man too for making this place possible. *daps* - ShannonRawls.com |
Ah, Shannon....that's rather drastic.
I think they are well frustrated already. I'm trying to do something for the Windows users. |
Any Mac can save out the files as AVIs but it would be DVCProHD wrapped in AVI so I suspect one would still need the DVCProHD codec.
I think the issue is, is that all the Mac users here have Final Cut Pro 4.5 or 5.0 and they come with the DVCProHD codec. Apparently MANY Windows NLEs do NOT include the DVCProHD codec. If it's Quicktime .mov files at issue, any FCP system or QuicktimePro can save the file as AVI instead without any additional compression. Mac users with Flip4Mac Studio Pro can create WMVHD files but those are compressed of course. I think Jan C. may have implied (or I inferred) on another thread that some Windows NLEs might be able to read the MXF files. Hope some of the info here will help in coming up with a workflow to get the files viewable on Windows. BTW all this is actually a significant issue if one is working in a mixed OS environment. The ability to move these files from FCP ingest to something a Windows user can work with without any additional compression, is certainly something we need to think about and solve in some real world post workflows. |
Craig,
Very good point. Can anyone do the conversion for me to AVI and send them to Chris? I'm swamped here. I'm supposed to do a couple of editings and write article for VideoAlpha magazine, too. |
If somebody can do these conversions and shoot me an email. Then I'll reply with our FTP upload account info. I'm on the road again tomorrow, heading frtom Dallas back to San Marcos, so it might be later tomorrow night before I can do anything. But try to contact me anyway and I'll see what I can do.
(Hey Kaku -- thanks again for all of your effort with this -- it's much appreciated!) |
Mucho huge millions of thanks to Kaku, Marc Olivier Chouinard, and Chris Hurd for hosting such massive files and offering up such massive bandwidth. Not an easy or inexpensive offering.
All is being confirmed many times over, from Barry Green's, Michael Pappas', and Kaku's footage that beyond the fear, uncertainty, and doubt, a huge revolution is taking place here. And we have yet to see a 35mm imager on the front end. :O :D ;) Stay tuned... |
