Well for me Neal…..through thorough personal needs
i worked out my personal workflow when working with DV in vegas
and after effects.I bought the Mainconcept DV Codec
and render out from after effects using this codec,
then place this back in vegas for finishing….hence
because vegas has the smart rendering feature, no
further compression is required when rendering this final
format back to DV (as you know too much rendering (recompression),
is what degrades your footage over time.
….Just my little two cents for now on this matter.
