Thanks! I am an absolute newbie.
Just one more question, in hollywood working on motion pictures (not dvd or web), how do they edit Red 4k footage or IMAX footage? If its converted to ProRes 444 haven’t tey lost quality if they don’t go back?

Could you please point me to a good read on the internet where I can understand codecs?
I thought H.264 at same data rates would be better (much better) than DV codec? or even HDV codec?

Thanks for the idea. My net speed is 1.5-2Mbps will try beforehand.

About H.264, I would be editing in DV SD (not HD). Does DV still have better qulaity than H.264 in that regard? I can never get my head around understanding these.

Yeah! Deliverable is a .mov DV file on data DVD or flash drive.

Thanks.
Any other suggestion? For my DV file and I am looking for intermediate compression – decompression solution (both codec & software to do so). What is the best way in your opinion?

Thx for the reply.
The timeline is pretty strict and I thought this way i will save time. And yes I had planned on chopping it down.
Normally, 500 MB takes 2hrs to upload & another 2hrs to download.
I plan to split it in 20 chunks.
So if someone starts downloading as soon as i upload the 1st file, the upload and download times will overlap.
The total time from 4hrs, comes down to 2hrs 15 min.
