THX Wow LD capture FOUND!!
#41
Lil Brutto mentioned he was locked into mac so Prores is the best bet. If he was windows I would say go ahead and go AVI (Lag or magic) but mac=prores.

Its not like that's a comprise. Even if Prores is lossy and AVI is loseless that not the full story. Prores is a fantastic format. It is lossy but not by much. Its design to be lossy in order to be a fast, great capture and easily edited format. In fact I think that the vast majority of TV shows in the US use Prores in their production (culled from years of reading American Cinematographer). TV shows need the speed of Prores over the slow methodology of a Raw format. I have even read of movies using it on occasion, even though more use a Raw format since they have a relatively longer production cycle. It's a very robust, versatile professional format.

As Doombot said Prores is an evolution of the video format that Apple design for SD so Prores is very adept at doing SD resolutions as well as HD.

Doombot or I can convert the Prores to AVI if need be.

Even trailers i download are usually prores and alot of DVCPRO 100. I have to admit, it really is a great format that works well.

Are you guys talking about Prores creation on Windows or Mac?

I highly recommend to use Prores encoding only on Mac. While you can use FFMPEG on Windows
to create Prores files, my test always resulted in problems on Mac with such created files.

Very soon as in 18 months later. Blush

Thanks for gentle reminder, Doombot. I can't believe it's been this long!

THX posted a 720p version of the THX WOW Montage with the original 2.0 Audio mix (but in AAC, 149kbps to be exact) on their Facebook page 3 years ago and I saved it on my computers hard drive (the video now has been downgraded to 360p on Facebook, which sucks!!).

Here is the link to the Video in 720p (had to put it in a rar folder because the links disappeared from here due to the new embedded browser video players) http://www.mediafire.com/file/ophd71cy8z...281%29.rar
