Hi all,
I am new to this forum (where I already found some very interesting information) and also new to video.
I understood that m2t is a native HDV type of file but can't be used on a Mac, and if I capture a tape with FCP I will get a mov file (uncompressed and lossless as the m2t, am I right?).
1)but, I was wondering, why the mov is heavier than the m2t? eg, my mov is about 500mb per minute, while the m2t (captured on a pc using Edius 5) is about 200mb per minute
2) it is then better to capture the tape on a Mac or I get the same quality on a pc?
thank you!
