Exporting for use on UK TV channel

[analog_addict]

Hi all,

I have exported a music video shot on DSLR which is to be shown on a UK standard definition TV channel.

I spoke to the guy from the TV station on the phone and he said he wanted it in .mov H.264 in it's best quality.

The spec I sent was:

.mov container
H.264 codec
1920x1080 resolution
25fps progressive

Will this be ok for him to scale down etc? The main thing I'm worried about is the 25fps frame rate. Isn't TV 50fps in the UK? Will the track lose sync when converted to 50fps etc?

Thanks :happy:

It's often 50i, but still 25fps. If he wanted a 720/50p video, then you have to redo it, but if it wasn't shot in 50p, it shouldn't be necessary.

Thanks.

My client dropped the footage off with the TV station today so hopefully all will be ok :grin:
