I'm looking for a good video encoder to compress HD files for editing within Sony Vegas Pro and Adobe After Effects.
What video codec would provide the fastest possible encoding and decoding? Also, what are some recommended encoding settings?
The video files must be usable in Sony Vegas Pro and Adobe After Effects.
