Hello,
I have been playing with Black Magic Design Intensity Shuttle for Thunderbolt. Will probably use workflow:
LD player Pioneer Elite LD-S2 Composite out -> Panasonic DMR-ES25 Component -> Black Magic Design Intensity Shuttle for Thunderbolt.
BM has 3 options: 8 bit uncompressed MOV, 10 bit uncompressed MOV and DPX.
I have no idea what DPX is? I was planning on recording in either 8 bit or 10 bit uncompressed MOV and then convert it to
Huffyuv AVI using AVISynth QTInput.
First off all for the source such as LD is 8 bit uncompressed MOV good enough? Or would 10 bit be more preferred?
Second question is: am I losing the quality if I perform conversion to
Huffyuv AVI using QTInput? I don't want to keep uncompressed since it takes too much disk space. But I don't want to be losing video quality either.
Third - what the hell is DPX? Just sequence of images?
Thanks.
