Title: Re: [RE] Video question
Sort of ... DV is both an encoding format and a recording format. Hence “HDV”, which is MPEG-2 encoded on DV tape. In addition, the studios prefer an I-frame-only form of MPEG2/4 since there are fewer generation losses on edits ... at least for MPEG-2, this is quite similar to DV50 ...
Frankly, all this may get more complicated in the near future as the HD wars heat up ... MPEG-2, MPEG-4/AVC (H.264), WM9 ...

Thanks Michael for the DV alphanumeric soup. The DV options are interesting but it sounds like the DV format is losing ground to MPEG.
