Encoding Rec.601 and Rec.709 footage

Hi there

I would like to combine Rec.601 and Rec.709 footage to be encoded at Rec.709 in HD using x264

I've used DGIndexNV to decode the HD footage and DGIndex to decode the SD footage.

I'm not sure if I am understanding Rec.601 and Rec.709 correctly. Is it a type of color encoding?

So once I have decoded the footage according to its coding (Rec.601/Rec.709) then if I try to encode it to HD using the x264 encoder then it will encode it at Rec.709, but is there anything I should add to my script for the DVD footage? Or does it not matter after decoding the footage?

By decoding the footage, I mean indexing with DGIndex:

DGSource("C:\BD.dgi")

Mpeg2Source("C:\DVD.d2v")

Please help, I'm a bit confused. A bit of clarity would go a long way.

Thanks
