Re: DG System Back Level

Fred, Craid, Great thread, Thank you!
Please help me avoid the same problem. Fred, is your footage coming in from analog source with setup already added?? I ask, as most digital sources usually have 0 IRE setup. Mine are digital, HD with 0 IRE black into an FCP sequence at 8 bit uncompressed 23.976. I am outputting this file as 8 bit uncompressed and nesting the file into an NTSC 8 bit timeline at 29.97. My blacks stay at 0 IRE for this, I am also adding Proc Amp filter (to bump blacks to 7.5) as DG asked for 7.5 blacks, which I usually never put on digital files for digital delivery as I know most devices add setup on analog output. They also asked for upper feild first in their mpeg files. Is ths right, I thought most systems use lower feild first for NTSC, my old Digisuite used upper first, I think???

Any how these spots are going to a remote market that I will never be able to see to spot check. If you could summarize the best practices for DG DropBox, based on your experience that would be a tremendous help. Best/recommended software for this encoding job??

Best regards,
Anthnoy Miles
