Best HD codec to transfer video files over the internet
I will be working with a client who lives in another country. He wants to send me their videos to be edited and color corrected and I was wondering which would be the best codec that would give me the best quality with a small file size. He will put the files inside my FTP. This is for broadcast and are 10 TV programs that run for 2 minutes each.
What would be your codec choice for this kind of work?Daniel Griffin

h.264. Full quality of the HD, 7-10mbs/ minimum (if you want to retain most of the quality.) But definitely h.264.
Best,
