Re: Editing HDV in FCP
by Jeff Carpenter on May 7, 2008 at 2:52:38 pm

You have 3 popular choices here:

1) Capture and edit as native HDV
2) Capture and edit as Apple Intermediate Codec
3) Capture and edit as ProRes

(I suggest 2 or 3.)

In all cases, put your 4x3 material in those sequences and blow them up to the point where they have black bars on the right and left. You could fill those in with a graphic or animation of some sort.

Then, at the end, you just export from the timeline using compressor. It goes straight to MPEG II. Set the Compressor preset as 16x9 and you'll get an anamorphic, widescreen 720x480 MPEG II for DVD.

Use the track settings in DVD Studio Pro to tell the player if you want it to play the track as letterboxed 16x9 or to crop it to 4x3. You can even set it so that it crops it to 4x3 on 4x3 sets and plays it widescreen on widescreen sets.
