Down-converting HD video is faster than
transcoding HD video or creating a video mix-
down, but outputs video of lesser quality. If you
see dropped frames during playback after down-
converting HD video, you can remedy this by
transcoding to an SD format or creating a video
mixdown.

Avid video peripherals output only standard
definition images with a 4:3 aspect ratio.
When playing back files with different as-
pect ratios (such as 16:9), the image will be
stretched to 4:3. Some professional monitors
can compensate for this by letterboxing the
image.

Because no SD equivalent exists for 720p
projects, they cannot be converted to SD
prior to exporting. If you export an AAF se-
quence from a 720p project in
Media Station|PT, Pro Tools can import
only the video metadata. Or, you may wish
to only export the audio.
