Defining your Video Rendering settings

Selecting your DV-1394 output settings

You can choose to output a sequence from the

Timeline

panel over the 1394

interface to perform an export to DV tape, and select the format you want for
your DV-1394 output.

Note

These settings are not needed to export to an HDV device, and the

DV-1394 Output

page won’t be available if you’re working with a

1440 ×1080i/p project.

° To select your DV-1394 output settings:

Choose

Project > Project Settings > General

and click the

Playback

Settings

button.

Click the

DV-1394 Output

tab.

Select

Enable 1394 output for export to tape

if you want your sequence

to be output over the 1394 interface when you perform an export to tape (that
is, when you choose

File > Export > Export to Tape

). This lets you record

your sequence to the DV-1394 device connected to your RT.X2 system.

¡ Important

Because this option requires additional system resources, you

may find that when this option is selected some effects that were previously
realtime will drop frames and require rendering (you’ll see a red bar over
these segments in your sequence). Therefore, you should select this option
only when you want to export your sequence to DV tape. When you perform
the export to tape, Adobe Premiere Pro will render the segments identified
by the red bar.

From the

Output Format

list, select the format you want for the DV-1394

output. For example, to record to a standard DV device, select

Matrox

DV/DVCAM

Click

to save your settings and return to the

Project Settings

dialog

box.

Defining your Video Rendering settings

When you select a Matrox project preset, your Video Rendering settings for
editing on Matrox RT.X2 are automatically set for you. You can specify
additional Video Rendering settings as explained in your Adobe Premiere Pro
documentation.
