Hello

I have just started to learn my 1st pro editing program - got my self a Adobe Product premium CS6. I watched the Linda`s Adobe Premier Pro c6 Essential Training...... lessons for the beginners, but i have a few questions that i did not get answers for. Plz help me out!

I use Windows 7 64bit

What is the best way to export XF codec?

i worked with original files from my C300 - i did not convert it to any other format, i just used MEDIA BROWSER to import my files - put them on time line - I finished editing - went to File -> Export -> Media

now i see the option - Match Sequence Settings - so i tried it, as i thought it will use exactly same setting from my original files, but after i played it in VLC player i noticed that its no longer 4:2:2, but 4:2:0 (VLC player shows info about codec .... for original file it shows 4:2:2, but for exported file from PP it shows 4:2:0 )

So what is the best way to save the edited file but in its original format?

Regards
 
probobly u did not understand me - i want to save file in the exact same settings that my original c300 file.

regards
 
The XF codec is built into the camera. It is not available on your computer to export to.

Use ProRes 422 or Avid DNxHD.
 
i see, but what would be the closest settings to what i have in my original files from C300? i dont want to get files that are larger then my original files......

or you guys never work with original files from c300 and u always transcode it 1st to Pro Res for example and only after that u put it in time line , edit it and export to Pro Res?

also i did not notice it yesterday (probably because it was already an early morning) but its seems like there is an option for what i need - "MXF OP1a" it offeres XDCAMHD 50 PAL (4:2:2) - is not it the one i need? or its some how different from what canon has?

and btw what are the export settings for Prores and DNxHD? i did not find it in the list of what PP offers

Regards
sorry for stupid questions

Without special software, you can't export to ProRes on a PC. DNxHD, however, is a free codec provided from Avid.
