What resolution and frame rate do you shoot your 5DM2 with?

[sankalpana]

25p 1920x1080

Go ahead and edit on your 1920X1080 25P timeline, once you finish editing, change your project to 1920X1080 50i and click on export/burn to disc.

I think we're back to the old downconversion issue again - the 5D files I've worked with create awful SD files - much worse than the EX1 thing - Virtual Dub still creates the best results here - TMPgenc appears to be poor - I guess Anton will have a look at this one day and create a new marvelous workflow... :-)

At least for NTSC I export as Canopus HQ fine, then let TMPGenc do the resize and encode and for me this is currently the best quality over VDub and a lot easier. From the comments PAL may be different.

Oh sorry, I didn't read it right I thought you wanted to render HD to make blu-ray, if your clients have LCD or Plasma, I would just edit in HD and when finished switch it to a DVD preset project in timeline and then burn to disc, if your clients still have the interlaced tube type tv then the virtual dub downconvert is the way to go.

Hi Paul

did you have Output interlace ticked or unticked, also are you feeding it interlaced or progressive files? my files are interlaced, I have not really tested progressive because I don't like the jittery pans of 25p (even with shutter at 50)
