Why not? We know that Cinelerra handles HDV quite well, and some of the clips have to be resampled no matter what, if there are both PAL and NTSC clips. Speaking of resolution; what aspect ratio should be used? I suppose the majority of our readers have cameras whose native aspect ratio is 4:3. 16:9 looks more "artsy", though. If the end result will be shrunk to something like 320x240, cropping to 16:9 will not look too shabby. Maybe we should just shoot in the native format of the camera, whether that is MP4, HDV or DV, and with the aspect ratio the camera was designed for. Then it is the editor's choice what the final aspect and resolution should be. Of course, everyone has to keep in mind that their footage can be cropped from 4:3 to 16:9, or vice versa. -- Herman Robak _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
