HD to flash |

This hi-def stuff continues to confuse me.
I'm about to start a new project that will ONLY go to my Website as an .flv file. If I capture in HD .. process a HD project in PE7 .. but then share using the NTSC Flash Video 8 700K (640 x 480) option .. have I accomplished anything processing a HD project? Even though it's only 640 x 480, is it still higher quality than if I processed it as an SD project? |

If your final export is to standard definition you will gain no increase in quality by working in a high definition project. Infact you could end up with worse quality... depending on how the video editor down sizes the video. If you intend to work in a SD project your best work flow is probably to downconvert in the camcorder and capture as standard definition DV-AVI ( assuming you have a HDv camcorder as I believe you have).

Yes, my camcorder is HD .. and I always shoot in HD .. as I'm always mixing and matching pieces together (often at a much later time), and never know what the final product is going to be before I start shooting. So am I surmising that if I'm going to end up with a flash (flv) file as my end product, I should at least process as an SD project in PE7, not HD?

As Paul suggested, the best way is to carry on recording in HD (just in case you find a future use for your footage) but downconvert in camera to SD for those .flv projects. |

Thanks, John .. and Paul. Haven't done the downconverting process yet, but will check it out.
