I have been experimenting with YUV, which is fine for me since I've got
about 4TB of "scratch space". But whenever I try to compress and render
at the end of an edit, Cinelerra seg faults. I'm currently using the
2.1 version from the HW website so my next step is to see if I still
have this problem with the community version. So I've been saving
uncompressed video and then using ffmpeg to create compressed video.
Not a very ideal situation, but it mostly works.
Hopefully, I'll get some of these kinks worked out before I just get
frustrated and go back to FCP...sigh...

YUV is raw data, so that means massive file size.
The idea is that you can pipe from cinelerra using a YUV pipe directly
into encoders (such as ffmpeg etc.) I definitely don't suggest it as a
format to save to!! (unless you're living in 2200 with massive HDD
space..)

Cool. I was not previously aware that YUV is lossless. Would it be
acceptable for editing?
