That’s just it, we also have the option to provide the network MiniDV tapes in lieu of the Mpeg-2 file. So that being the case, I wanted someone’s input on this as well. Providing tapes is not the preferred method as it relates to the logistics, but if the decision had to be made to prioritize video quality, then I’d be open to suggestions on the proper way to do this.

Thank you everyone for your responses. You’ve all obviously concluded that rendering down to 480p is where the problem lies and coupled with rendering the Mpeg-2 makes the degredation even more severe.
That being the case, if we were to continue with the same network, would it be more advantageous to print to tape in order to maintain the quality? So in essence, while using Adobe Premiere, we can scale down the HD footage within a 480p sequence and then print to a DVCam? Seeing that printing to a DVCam does not necessarily lose image quality, this would be our only chance of maintaining the majority of the image quality, correct?
