Better to go AVI, then to go to tape and back into Pro, as you should
get less of a reduction in quality keeping the movie file in the digital
domain, rather than recording it to tape then playing it back. Of
course, if you want a better quality than an AVI file, you'll need to
use a lossless codec, so that there's no compression/decompression
cycle. That's where the quality loss occurs.
