Re: Need advice: Storage solution
by Ron Lindeboom on Mar 1, 2008 at 1:33:04 pm

[Bahram Gueranfar] "Since I will have to invest into a solution, I would like it to be useful for HD editing on FCS2 after. I should start editing uncompressed hd editing by the end of the digitalisation project."

Reading this, I am scratching my head as I cannot figure out why you say that you "need to digitalize 400 hours + of footages and compress them in Mpeg2 for archiving" but that the end destination is a High Definition uncompressed project to be edited in FCS2. I am confused.

If you are going to be working with High Def, then crunching them down into MPEG2 makes no sense -- unless I am missing something here.

If it were my project, I'd look at the SheerVideo codec. It will allow for others who may not have the latest version of Final Cut to access and work with the files, while doing it in a compressed format that won't destroy the visual acuity of you files (such as will happen if you use MPEG2).



Best regards,
