If you have a supported high-definition capture card installed, you can export high-definition sequences to a high-definition file format or to tape in a high-definition device. You can also export to MPEG2 Blu-ray, a high-definition format for authoring to Blu-ray discs, or to high-definition varieties of H.264 or Windows Media for playback from hard disks or computer optical drives.

Adobe Premiere Pro can export HDV sequences to tape on an HDV device (Windows only) or export either HD or HDV sequences directly to disc.
