I have a Canon HV20 and I'm trying to find a way to capture offline, meaning capture in lower quality to save disk space and after editing - recapture used clips in full resolution.
I can do this in SDV but every combination of settings I try in HDV always results in file sizes 3-4 times bigger than just capturing HDV. 'OfflineRT HD' just results in FCP being unable to recognise the camera.
I suppose another question is for HDV footage whats the best codec to import with? I figured ProRes would be useless since HDV is already compressed? And whats the best situation to use Apple Intermediate Codec?
