Sorry if this is a redundant post, but I can't seem to figure out what is the best program and settings for GH1 footage.

I have a non-hacked GH1 with 1080 60i/24p footage clips and also some 720p60 clips.

I need to mix them with a HMC150 with 108024p footage.

What is the verdict as far as best software to use for pulldown, has VoltaicHD been deemed the best?

If so, what settings? I can check deinterlace footage in 3 different menues in VoltaicHD, and the only way it works is if I chose interlaced, top-field first in the Custom-options-movie settings menu. I check this and also choose 24fps in the movie settings menue and in the advanced-Export as 24p menu.

The result is a 24p de-interlaced file but it is super-choppy and jumpy for some reason.

What is the best way to do this in VoltaicHD, or should I be using another program (JES, Neoscene cineform, compressor, etc.)

Thanks.
 
For PC I use Edius 5.5...it already has Canopus Lossless/HQ included which very quickly converts to avi and removes pull-down. You can then edit easily on the timeline and export a very smooth render in whatever file you want.
 
I use Compressor. Works great, especially on faster hardware where you can set up the cores as a cluster.
 
Thanks for the responses.

I still couldn't get VoltaicHD to work properly but I used log+transfer to prores and JES for pulldown removal which worked a charm for my 1080i60 footage to 24p, and used compressor for the 72060p footage to 720p24 according to the instructions in Method 1 in this sticky.

I kind of wish there was a sticky which listed the most popular/recent/stable method for these tasks, but I supposed it might be hard for the mod to decide which method that was.

Anyway thanks for the help. Anybody else hoping the AF100 drops for $3500 and puts a cost-effective end to all of this???:D
