[Kdenlive-devel] big files = no fun

You know, mpeg4 is a really bad format for video editing. I get mpeg2 .m2t
files from my HDV camera, work with 12gb files no problem.

For high quality video editing i would recommend the DNxHD codec. You can
convert your clips easily in the project manager too! (right click on clip,
transcode...) Great feature:)

They get autoadded to the project then you can just start editing.

Good luck,
Slavko
