I would say that the DV picture does get noisier between generations ----  
 
but I'm not sure that this is the DV's  fault or mine as I  used to have to  
bounce a few generations 
 
down and could definitely see that the blacks and certain saturated colors  
were getting grainyer 
 
with each generation. I did bounce to different codecs though --- like going  
from regular DV to 
 
canopus real-time DV to Vegas DV, to Quicktime DV -- and I don't remember  
the recompression settings. 
 
Now I just hold off and try to keep one timeline and use fewer subclips. 
 
FYI ,  for the wise asses out there --- I used to be a freelance TV engineer  
and I really can "see" 
 
the aforementioned GRAIN...
