I’m thinking of using H.264 all the way through to save space and because it can be sent via FTP sort of quickly. I just did a quick test here and the H.264 file was 1/16th the size of an Avid Meridian file.
I’ve told the people there to use a stopwatch when they record and to be sure to name each clip to keep the confusion low.
