Chapter 5, Defining Your Adobe Premiere Settings
Defining your Video settings
Your project’s Video settings determine the compression format for playing back
video from the Timeline. On Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme, your Timeline’s
compression format is set to DV/DVCAM at a fixed data rate of 25 Mb/sec.
°To specify your project’s Video Settings on Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme:
1 Choose Project > Project Settings > Video.
¦NoteThe Compressor is automatically set to Matrox DV/DVCAM. This
codec will be used to render your preview files when playing back
non-realtime effects.
2 From the Frame Rate list, select 29.97 if you have an NTSC system, or 25
if you have a PAL or SECAM system.
3 From the Pixel Aspect Ratio list, select the setting that matches the aspect
ratio of the material you’re editing:
$ D1/DV NTSC (0.9) For NTSC material that uses the standard TV screen
format.

widescreen 16:9 format.
$ D1/DV PAL (1.067) For PAL material that uses the standard TV screen
format.
