I actually meant to know if raw video is created during the whole
process, and from your answers it appears like that. It also appears,
from above answer, that it's possible to do it directly. How does one
achieve that?
Thanks for your answers... I'm enlightened and shall go in search for
further enrichment and perhaps you could provide one. (PS: I checked
that wikipedia article)
