Part 2: How to Transcode Video to Avid DNxHD Codec Free
There are several ways to do this, but before you start, make sure you have downloaded and installed both MPEG Streamclip and the Avid DNxHD Codecs.
Avid Codec Windows
Open MPEG StreamClip and either drag the video you want to transcode onto the empty window or use the Open Files option in the File menu.
Choose Export to QuickTime from the file menu…
Select the AVID DNxHD Codec from the Compression drop down menu…
Thanks to Sounddroid for pointing out this crucial step which I missed that would explain my huge file size. Click on the Options button and choose the most appropriate setting for you. You are choosing from 1080 or 720, the frame rate, and level of compression. Sounddroid suggests…
People in post will generally want to use 1080p / 24 / 36Mbit / 8-bit, or 1080p / 23.98 / 36Mbit / 8-bit, depending on the project settings.
That would make sense for film work but for TV post you are likely to want either 25/50 for PAL or 23.976/59.94 for NTSC countries.
Then check the rest of the settings. I tend to leave the Frame Size on the (unscaled) setting so the movie isn’t resized. The other thing I also do is to deselect Interlaced Scaling and select Deinterlace Video especially as I am displaying the video on an LCD screen. I have got so fed up with seeing interlacing artifacts that I end to doing it every time now to be safe.
Avid Dnxhd Quicktime
Once you are happy with the settings, click on the Make Movie button and determine where on your system you want to save the transcoded video and hit Save.
Now wait for MPEG Streamclip to transcode the video and then you are ready to import the Avid DNxHD version into Pro Tools in the normal way. Job done.
Editor's Note: As the software applies the QuickTime technology, it's by default that you can upload and play any QuickTime supported file formats as well. However, that might not always be the case. Your MPEG Streamclip might not work and prompt up messages such as 'won't read or open files' or 'unrecognized file format'. And lots of MPEG Streamclip users have recently discovered it couldn't get the files converted, and the malfunction occurred after they all upgraded to the system Mac OS X 10.14 macOS Mojave, Yosemite or Mavericks. For these cases, a great MPEG Streamclip alternative (e.g. EaseFab Video Converter recommended in this article) is the best choice for you.
Dnxhr Codec
HEVC, also known as H.265, is an advanced video compression standard and a successor of the widely adopted H.264. It provides superior video quality and up to twice the data compression as the previous standard (H.264/MPEG-4 AVC), HEVC can support 8K Ultra High Definition video, with a picture size up to 8192×4320 pixels. Nowdays more and more digital cameras like Samsung NX500, NX1, GoPro Hero 7, Canon XF705, DJI Phantom 4 Pro have been able to shoot videos in HEVC/H.265 codec. Although the video quality at H.265 4K VIDEO is very excellent with crisp detail, great colors and nice dynamic range, however, if you want to do some post production work-flow of these H.265/HEVC footage with professional video editors like Avid Media Composer, you will end up with failure. And you may encounter problems like these:
'Is it possible to AMA Link and import Canon HEVC H.265 4K (as shot on Canon XF705 camcorder) into Media Composer and then transcode to DNxHR?'
'Installled plugins from the canon website that claim to offer support for avid, but so far no joy..'
'The new DJI Phantom 4 Pro shoots in h.265 new codec.. When will MC support this for import? dont need ama, just need to import into avid without using a third party app to transcode prior!'
If you are intending to edit H.265/HEVC video files in Avid MC, you will need H.265/HEVC AMA plugin for Avid MC. Unfortunately, this is not supported in the current product. Before that day arrives, the easiest and best workaround is to transcode the H.265/HEVC codec to DNxHD codec, the most editing-friendly format for Avid Media Composer.
To convert H.265 to Avid DNxHD codec quickly and easily, EaseFab Video Converter for Mac is highly recommended. This program features high efficiency and seamless conversion. With it, you can do batch conversion from H.265 to DNxHD codec without quality loss for smooth importing and editing in Avid Media Composer.
