Apologies, smartphone reply was not quite smart.
Let me clarify.
I do not know any restrictions with Avid ISIS regarding formats and
compression. You can mix frame size, frame rate, compression and such on
the same workspace without any issue. At any given time many of our
clients mix DNX, XDCAM, DVCPro, Meridien, HDV and such in the same
workspace, in the same project. This is on ISIS 5000. I don't see why
the big brother ISIS 7000 would not be able to do the same. But as I
mentioned, Lawson is more qualified to answer that as he works with
7000s every day. I am not sure which ISIS you where utilizing.
Regarding mix NLEs, though there is no compression mixing limitation,
there is a NLE platform limitation. Each ISIS 5000 chassis is rated
around 325 MB/s. When using Avid editor with non-Avid editing system (ie
FCP and Premiere) the box overall rating drops to around 200 MB/s or
even less. 7000 is a bit different in regards to speed but there is
still a huge penalty when utilizing 3rd party NLEs.
Not sure if this helps, but hoped it clarified my previous statements.
