This is a moot issue when you consider that NLEs edit a proxy, not the real data. When you finally output you will be processing at slightly less than real time.

Hardly something to waste much energy worrying about. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
