Do I need a new computer to edit High Definition Video Production?
A. Absolutely not. If you have a computer that can edit DV, you have a computer that can edit High Definition Video. High Definition Video Production in 1080i format is the same bitrate (25Mbps) as DV is. However, depending on the system, you may experience choking on the system, depending on whether you’re editing Transport Streams or with an intermediary codec such as the Cineform Connect HD codec.
