[Avid-L2] Re: XDCAM HD 422 50M

 

Curious how do you end up with "XDCAM HD 50Mb OCC" as opposed to "the full raster HD 50Mb codec? Is this a function of the Camera that is used or is it a setting choice effecting the format? Is the half height codec to save disc space? Oh I love how much easier life is with all the new digital standards. ;-)
