If you're getting HDV pics from your Canon on BD's, then I should be able to do the same. You should be then watching them at the original res. via HDMI right? Do you see 1080i come up on your display after authoring to BD via Pinnacle? |
First. You download (capture) HDV through the Firewire connector. HDV 1080i uses a resolution of 1440×1080 pixels not 1920 x 1080. So it is not the same as HDMI. It is a small loss.
The capture is in HDV so the output is at HDV level.
Once edited the output is burnt to DVD using the AVCHD Studio option.
