Steve,

Farnsworth and mine have different delays because we're running different clips. Actually, every clip you extract will have a different delay. That's the reason for the PERL to read what...

I don't know anyone who'd casually go out and buy a turnkey HDV editor. But those specs will filter down eventually.
