Obtaining BEST quality SD footage from HD edit?

Post by spudgun »

Gentlemen, (and ladies), what a truly great site.

I am about to acquire either the HV20 or 30, although I currently do NOT have any HD equipment; ie: only have a SDTV and DVD player. ( Here in the Uk I am also on the PAL system).

Now, I would LOVE to find a workflow procedure for Videostudio 11+ that explains the best methods of either:

a/ Capturing and editing in HD then burning to DS DVD (what boxes to tick and configure!!!) ensuring that the best quality is maintained, (obviously I know it can't be HD).

or

b/ Copying back to the HV Camera in HD edited form. (Presumably this would still look BETTER when played on an SDTV than footage shot on an SD Camera?)

Advice, comments and pointers greatly appreciated and welcomed.

Welcome to the forum But I am afraid you have committed the sin of double posting. You have already posted this same thread in another -- see http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/viewtopic. ... 769#154769

So I am going to lock this new thread to avoid a confusing proliferation of answers being posted in two different threads. :cry: :roll:
