EricBall's Tech Projects - Video is BIG part 2

[RSS Bot]

I've enhanced my workflow, so I'll share it for others who may want to do something similar.

 

Step 1 - using a simple video capture program and an analog capture card, I capture the video at 720x480 (YUV2 compressed with HuffYUV), and 48KHz 16bit audio to NTFS formated disk.

Step 2 - use AVCutty to detect scene changes. I created a custom scene index to simplify the next step.

Step 3 - compress the scenes to DV format using ffmpeg -ss hh:mm:ss.00 -t hh:mm:ss.00 -i capture.avi -target ntsc-dv "clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.dv"

Step 4 - copy to NTFS formated external disk using /v parameter (actually a 27GiB partition).

Step 5 - connect external drive to Mac, and import DV files to HFS+ formated external disk (actually a second partition on the same drive).
