Title: Re: AAF Question
Hi All,
We do mostly 60 minute weekly broadcast programs and started on DS Nitris in April of this year.  When previously editing on MC, we used 2:1 compression to save drive space, and it looked fine.  Since joining the DS world, we've only operated uncompressed.  I'm considering switching to 2:1, however, I've heard that there have been problems in the past regarding compression in DS.  The forum archives don't seem to have a recent discussion on the topic.  Could I get some insight from you all regarding the current "goods, bads, and uglies" regarding using compression -- especially 2:1.
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Randy
