Using QT Proxies instead of Redcine

[Simon Baechler]

Hi

Has anyone tried to use the Quicktime proxies and QT Pro to create offline clips instead of Redcine? It should be quite a bit faster and the best thing is that you can batch process it.

You could use a software like Discreet Cleaner XL and just set up a batch at the end of the day with all your H.Proxies of that day. Make it into a DV-Quicktime for editing and a mpeg2 file at the same time for DVD dailies. Then let it run over night and the next day everything will be ready. On a fast system the morning dailies would even be ready after lunch. I think QT supports burn-in TC as well.

you can batch process proxys in red alert with anders holcks tool, redportal.

from here you could start to edit in fcp, export a xml, use ians fcpxml to redcine xml, export the files yo need.....
