We offer 2 standard choices for outputting your HD film transfer to a digital file
1. AVI File with Mjpg codec: This codec is very common and will work in almost all edit systems. Depending on how the film was shot, our telecine software will add frames to reach the 30fps NTSC Standard for DVD/Blu-Ray Authoring or for import to an edit system. Film Transfers with Audio: AVI files will have the audio embedded with the file.
2. JPG Image Sequence: Individual JPGS sequentially numbered. This option is ideal for archiving of the film. There will be exactly one jpg for each frame of film. If the film was shot at 18 fps, that’s the speed the image sequence will play back at. This image sequence may then be brought into an edit program and slowed down using the edit software. Film Transfers with Audio: For JPG Image Sequence transfers, we will generate a separate WAV files that are frame-accurate and synchronous to your film transfer.
Standard Definition File Format:
AVI File with DV Codec: This format will work with Most edit systems and will allow for encoding to DVD. If you have audio with your film, the audio will be imbedded in this file.
