ADOBE PRODUCTION STUDIO no native DVCPRO-HD support

Don't know yet. I doubt it has much to do with uncompressed HD, which is an absolutely extraordinarily high demand on a system. I'd guess that they're referring to HDV and DVCPRO-HD.
 
It make sense. But in the other hand, specialy about HDV it doesnt... exept if we think about the heavily compressed factor.

Actually, Barry, the stated HDV requirements are 3.4Ghz P4.

"Intel® Pentium® 4 1.4GHz processor for DV (Pentium 4 3.4GHz processor for HDV; dual Intel Xeon™ 2.8GHz processors for HD; SSE2-enabled processor required for AMD systems)"

It's not very clear to me what exactly Adobe means by "HD" other than references the Aja Xena HS card. The card itself only appears to provide a SDI interface. How would that work with the HVX200?

Too bad, the new integration of AE7, PP2, Audition 2 and Encore is really nice. It's much better than FCP Studio. I was really starting to think about buying a PC (I am mainly Mac) just for the Adobe Production Suite but by the end of the night I just felt pissed-off about the whole thing.

Lets all go to NAB and storm the Adobe Booth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm asking that same question. Doesn't seem like it has anything to do with the HVX, I'm not seeing where Premiere Pro offers the HVX users any functionality...
 
Well I've tested Premiere Pro 1.5 and some HVX files encoded with Cineform AspectHD and they scream along with no problems on my P4 3.2 Dual Core, 4gig Ram system.

I really do like the new production bundle from Adobe - for the price you get some serious applications. Worse case if Adobe drops the ball on DVCPRO HD I'm sure our friends at CineForm will have something. Yes it means taking the time to encode to the CineForm codec before editing but I'm not so sure having real time 10 Bit HD is a bad thing ;)

However, the ideal solution would be for Adobe to support DVCPRO HD native so we can plug in and edit. If the HVX becomes the number 1 camera of choice like I suspect it wil, Adobe will need to get on board or someone needs to fire the project manager over there.

Lets face it...
Adobe thinks the future of video will be web based and
thats where they are going. I think the future of video will
be player based HDTV....
But who am I?

and that's why they don't include DVCPRO? They're retarted(or cheapies).
 
Sorry, I typed that wrong. I was talk about HDV clips to Cineform. However, I've tried some sample HVX clips with the dvfilm demo and they seem ok. I don't like the way dvfilm created the converter but better than nothing I guess.
 
So I quess for all of us PC users that going to remain PC users... waiting.. waiting...waiting...waiting (THE DOORS) :)
 
Something that I find intresting from Adobes forums:


I can't see the DVCpro-HD footage

Simon Gardiner - 12:42am Jan 18, 2006 Pacific


When I import some footage that uses the DVCpro-HD format(captured on a MAC) the file imports OK but I can only see a blank White screen instead of the frames.

Does premier Pro support this format - I can't seem to get a straight answer.

Thanks

Premiere Pro does not support this format currently.


Simon Gardiner - 1:42am Jan 18, 06 PST (#2 of 2)

Its strange because I can see all the video data in premier (i.e. frame rate, video length, pixel res, etc.) but nothing visual.
 
Axio and HVX support

Axio and HVX support

I'm a current RT.X100/Premiere Pro 1.51 user. Axio cards sitting here waiting for HP XW9300 dual-core Opterons to arrive.

Have been begging Matrox to build in MXF support in AxioTools since June 2005. Finally got word that "yes, it will be coming in a future release of Axio tools."

An unnamed contact on razor_users@yahoogroups.com is a beta tester for Axio/Adobe and asked me privately last week "So if Axio were to support mxf files only at the framerates/sizes that it currently offers, would that interest you for now....with the assumption that more framerates/sizes would be supported in the future?"

This contact is under NDA and is a very tight-lipped person. From this question, I interpret that to mean "Holy cow, just you wait....Axio is gonna rock the world at NAB2006 by rolling out MXF support for the HVX200!!"

Again, this is my interpretation. I don't actually know the date of release of said support for MXF in Axio, but I do strongly believe that it is coming soon.

Another assumption from what this contact said is that MXF support may not exist for 720p (HVX Native mode and variable frame rates) initially. Might only be for 1080i in the immediate future. Don't know. Mysterious, this beta world is.

Talked with Adobe today - they have no current information for DVCproHD & P2 support - the 3rd party support only means that THEY will not support it but whoever else wants to -> PPro 2 will support that format. Sounds like bull plop to me. Hopefully the cineform people will step up to the plate.
 
Cineform will support HVX soon. Here is the cut and paste of the email I recieved from them:

>>
CineForm will support editing files from the HVX200. Our software for this is not yet ready. I don’t have a definite release date, but it will be before NAB.

"What is funny, is the component into Kona DVCproHD was better looking than what went to P2 in camera same format/frame etc, when all played back together...

That ain't possible, right?"

It's certainly possible; they're different implementations of the DV codec. There are comparisons out there of different DV codecs that show clear visual differences.
