Up-Rezzing DVX footage to HD

you can mix it, but it will likely look a bit different. The HVX is able to take in more color information than the DVX in ADDITION to its higher resolution.
 
If you could seamlessly mix in up-rezed SD footage into HD... there wouldn't be much need for HD cameras, would there?

Maybe you should re-read your own post.

You don't seem to understand what I am saying at all.

Please don't respond to my posts anymore.

Thanks. Do you know what the process is for up-rezzing the DVX footage?

Is there a software that does it?

Or you can uprez by using an HD compatible NLE very easily. Create a timeline, let's say 1280 x 720 and drop your DVX footage on the timeline. Now go into the clip properties and change the scaling to "fit X and Y, Keep aspect". The will fit your video to the 1280 x 720 timeline and render to whatever codec you have set as a render/fuse codec for your timeline. I've made an example for you. This little clip was shot originally in squeeze mode and then uprezzed to 1280 x 720.

Of course if you have an HDTV connected via DVI to your computer you'll see the real result.
 
Check out some Teranex products, which I think I might do as well. They are coming out with a more 'affordable' product known as "Mini" sometime the end of the year or 2006, which is supposed to convert SD signals to HD. Although it is a broadcast instrument, you can easily use this via SDI connection as attached hardware. I've only been quoted the range of $4,000 to $10,000, but we'll see. It's also pretty small as well-- looks kind of like a cable modem. I think they might have been premiered at IBC this year, but I'm not sure ... anyone know?

The trick is getting this to output back to the system, instead of going out to broadcast mediums. I think that should work very well. Hopefully, in my case, I'll be able to convert thermal images with this product, which would definitely be valuable for what I'm doing.

Good luck!
