Best format for including movie clips into a new project
What is the preferred format for including separate movie clips into a new project timeline – does one render the clips, then include the mpg’s into the new project, or plug avi’s into the new project, or what? A DVD is the intended final product.
Advice certainly appreciated!

if your new project has not been rendered to MPG which I would assume it hasn’t been then simply go to the clip you want to add to the timeline thru the explorer and add as you would any other clip.
If the project has been rendered to MPG then you might be better off renerding that clip to MPG before bringing it in but remember to render to the bitrate for the whole project based on time/size of the original project.

Thanks Don,
I assume then that the renderer is smart and renders only what isn’t mpg’d and integrates this with the pre-rendered segments in the timeline. And so there is no re-rendering or degradation of the pre-rendered clips?
TIA,
