Abstract

Digital video (DV) formatted image streams may be converted into an intermediate format having a lower resolution than the original image streams. A user may then edit the intermediate formatted image streams to generate a sequence of edit commands. The edit commands may then be processed to generate an output image stream based on the original image streams. The output image stream may be in any desired format, including DV format. The sequence of edit commands may also be processed to generate a preview image stream in the intermediate format.
