Kev,
Yes the earlier telecine transfers (the ones that resulted in already
posted clips) were originally received as mini dv tape. Not sure we
really addressed the interlacing issue at that time. Maybe I need to
go back to those files and see if they can be improved.
Maybe that has something to do with the jerky clips.
Now I bring an ext. HD and receive the transfers as Apple ProRes422
files. Is that the best choice at this point in the process, they
have another file which is higher and longer to load?.
It is the current project that was transferred to ProRes and that I
was hoping for smoother results when finally compressed for online
sample clips.
