Replying to myself here, since I did not get any from the list. I'll
simplify my question.
What is the best codec/file format to use when slicing video footage
into smaller resolutions, which will then get loaded back into cinelerra
for editing?
I have been going down the list of formats and just by trial and error
trying to find one that works for me, but I'd love some guidance.
Cheers

Hello fellow cinelerra users (and devs).
I have been working with Cinelerra for a few years now, and have
recently upgraded my system and checked out the newest cvs to work on
a more ambitious project.
I am using FRAPS to capture video off my gaming computer which comes
in at 1152x864, in the fraps codec.
The target is 320x240 for youtube.
So, on my windows box, I have been encoding the full size fraps avi
files to DivX using virtualdub. Then transferring the DivX avi files
to cinelerra for cropping and positioning. Then I render out chunks
of video at the proper size so that I can edit with performance close
to realtime.
My questions...
What is the best codec to use for cinelerra rendering to be imported
back in as a cinelerra resource? Uncompressed is fine at this
resolution.
Is there a better codec to use inside of virtualdub to get raw source
to cinelerra without compression? The only issue here is some of
these files are just huge.
Any gotcha's or other things to be aware of while doing this?
Thanks for any tips or insights!
