Re: A Centillion number of formats and standards

I'll hop on the rant bandwagon as well. My catch phrase is that HD is the most un-standard standard ever created. If you say NTSC or PAL you pretty much know what you are getting. But saying ATSC is just about as broad as saying "video" and this is w/o even talking about all the different codecs out there. It's just insane. Did you shoot to a card, a disc, a tape, a HDD? HDCAM, HDCAM SR, XDCAM HD, XDCAM EX, DVCPro HD, HDV1, HDV2, AVCHD, AVC-intra, Canon's 24f mode, REDcode? Is it interlaced or progressive? 720 or 1080? Full raster or anamorphic pixels? 60, 50, 30, 25 or 24 fps? "Real" 24fps or 23.976?

Ugh.
