PHYX Cleaner plugin as suggested on a Wirecast forum 2.Compressor 4 via forcing the field order to interlaced.Three approaches to “uncomb” 1 the baked in interlaced footage were tried: Thus the Nightmare Before Recording began. So rather than deal with all that I said instead, “Let’s just save H.264 in Wirecast to disk!” (It was a pretty neat setup actually, using two Wirecast documents open simultaneously, one for the livestream and one just for the camera’s archive stream.) Just in case 1080p would create an upscale, I thought going 720p would be better. For example: since HDV is technically a 4:3 1440x1080 image that’s then stretched out, I wasn’t sure whether I should record to 1920x1080 or 1440x1080.
Scopebox wirecast how to#
Wirecast doesn’t know how to “automatically” record as HDV instead it manually requires setting the codec format, frame rate, etc. While this post details many other general livestreaming lessons learned, there are a few major downsides to relying on Wirecast for raw footage which I now realize. It wasn’t possible to share the video source with both Wirecast and ScopeBox, so I thought, “Hey, why not try recording straight to disk in Wirecast instead?” In order to avoid those awful MiniDV tapes-whose tape changes I feared also might cause the live feed to that meant recording to disk. It has a Firewire out which makes it perfect for livestreaming.įor this event, I wanted to (1) use the FX7 for livestreaming and (2) also record the raw HDV video itself for editing afterwards. AVCHD files compressed into H.264 for editing will look just awful. If you plan to edit the resulting file, convert it to ProRes instead. X.264 and H.264 should only be used when creating files for the web.
