I had one party and the camera man just recorded all the videos on mini DV tapes.
Now he promised me that he will give me HD 16:9 1080p DVD
for videos
But i am confused how he will convert tapes to HD. Aren't he has to use HD cameras for that not tapes. or he is lying to me
Is it possible
whats the best way to convert from tapes to mp so that quality does not chnage. I saw the sample of that video and quality was not good. i need to tell him which thins to chnage like bit rate etc in capturing software – user1315279 – 2012-04-18T03:23:19.200
Oh, I was under the impression that your cameraman knew what he was doing! If his capture software is converting to MPEG on the fly, then yes: increase the bit rate. I'm not an expert on video, but it could be that his camera is using HDV to store HD on MiniDV link. That's an MPEG based format. Can he just capture 'raw' from the camera? Perhaps he can get the original quality video off the tape and just burn some DVDs for you. Then you can mess around with MEncoder or whatever.
