We have been recording our church services in DVCpro50. We record direct to disk as a QT file. We use FCP to make DVDs and our television broadcast.
Part of the workflow involves me mixing audio in Vegas.
Our Video editors barely have enough time to make one broadcast each week. We now have almost 50 sermons shot on 3 cameras that need to be made into DVDs.
My thinking is that since I am already in Vegas, I could spend a few more hours and edit a DVD at the same time.
Because the video files are quicktime I don't think Raylight will work to decode them.
My plan is to use Apple's Compressor to create some lossless codec to work in.
10-bit uncompressed will work, but the file sizes are pretty huge! For 3 cameras and a line edit, a total of 4 streams, I think I would need a fast raid array.
Is there a codec that doesn't require too much system resources to decode, and 50Mbps or so file size that can be generated on the mac and edited in Vegas?
thanks,
~Jay
