Thanks for that
But I am a bit confused - If I am outputing from the timeline in -
lets say PremierPro, am I not re compressing back to HDV.. To stop
the second pass, should I output directly to another format that is
less compressed and possibly take the hard disk to a transfer service
to output to HDCam hence reducing second a high level compression.
Sorry - HDV is completely new to me, and once I am editing in it,
these things may be so obvious, but I am really unclear on the
workflow that keeps the quality high.
