RE: DVDC Pro HD on Windows?



This is Carbon:

http://rhozet.com/productCCmain.html

As you can see, it can pretty much go from anything to anything.  That
said, I'm sure there must be some NLE's on Windows that can edit a
DVCPROHD .mov natively, but I don't know what they are.  Avid, maybe?
Honestly, I only ever see DVCPROHD coming from FCP users.  95% of the HD
content I work with comes in on D5 or HDCAM which I capture to
uncompressed 10-bit 4:2:2, which is much easier to use cross-platform.

Ben,

That's exactly what I'm looking for! I'm not familiar with Carbon,
it's an encoding product? What editor are you working with on
Windows? What's the workflow look like to bring a DVDCPRO HD
encoded .mov into say Premiere, Avid, or some other editor running on
Windows? Run through Rhozet Carbon first to repackage the .mov into
what?

Thanks!
