Getting Started

Open an existing project; then in the Project window, click the Format
tab, and from the menu, choose the related standard-definition (SD) or
high-definition (HD) format of the media you want to capture.
When you choose an HD project type or format, also make sure to
choose the appropriate raster type. If you are unsure about the raster
type, Media Composer advises you on the media formats that match
the raster type you have selected.
When you change the project format, the hardware input and output,
resolutions, and new sequences change to support the new project.
