Codec: Main Concept Pro HD

Paul Beach wrote on 4/30/2009, 2:25 PM

I need to render a video file to 1920X1080. We are adding a 10 minute 3D video, at my workplace, that will be showing on a 20' X 40' screen.

The previous video was rendered in Adobe Premiere, using the Main Concept Pro HD codec; 1920X1080. Progressive, I think. The file plays off a show-controlled video server, using the Stratus Video HD card.

Is it possible to use the Cineform codec in Vegas to "play nice" on this server?

Or, is the Main Concept Pro codec available as a Vegas plugin? If not, is the next logical step to use Main Concept Pro as a stand alone application?

TIA,
Paul

Main Concept makes a variety of codecs. The Main Concept Pro HD codec is just an MPEG2 codec. You can easily render MPEG2 at 1920x1080 out of Vegas. Just select MPEG2 as the file type and then select the appropriate template.
