Ww are still just putting up mpeg-1 (mpg) videos. The only difference between the stuff shot is HD is the vids are widescreen and a little bigger so basically we are throwing away 95% of the info but we are keeping the masters for future use when we will rerelease it in true HD.

Just using iMovie at this time to edit stuff. We own Final Cut Pro but for what we are doing iMovie is really all we need and much easier to use.

To turn the movies into mpeg-1 (mpg) we are using Compression Master. It's not that we think mpg is that great of a format, it isn't, but it does seem to be the only format that our members can always play without any problems.
