Question about editing codecs and compression for delivery

[Göran Thorén]

Hi!

I’m a bit confused about editing codecs and compression.

Will the editing codec in any way affect the delivery process?

I mean, does it matter which codec I use for editing or will the media connect back to my source media and its codec when the time comes to export for delivery ?

Or will it use my editing codec and compress it from that?

I hope my question makes sense.

Thanks!
