A real waste of time if you plan to edit video in any mainstream NLE (Premiere, FCP) since MPEG2 is a delivery only format not suited for video edting.

I'll stick with miniDV.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/
but seriously now that the recording capacity has been increased 8-ish-fold... is it really too much to ask for to at least have an *option* to record in something more normal (but large filesize) like DV? HDV? for those of us not wanting to burn straight to DVD that is. USB 2.0 is nice i guess... Firewire might be nicer...]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/Dec 19th 2005 12:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/
If you only cut on I-frames, then you can avoid re-encoding, so you preserve the quality of the original MPEG-2. However, if you cut between I-frames or perform an operation other than a simple cut, then you must re-encode the frames that are involved in the operation.

Apparently there is a "JVC Studio" pop up store near times square. Anyone know the address/location/cross-streets?

Thanks.]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/Dec 19th 2005 12:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/Dec 19th 2005 12:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/14/jvcs-everio-gz-mg20-mg30-and-mg50-lineup/What I'm thinking is if it's possible for $80 or so, to buy a 60-80GB notebook HD and upgrade this?

I think Ulead Media Studio Pro also edits MPEG2 natively (without decompressing the entire file).]]>Dec 19th 2005 12:54AM
