format for editing in D1 (or is it D2?!?).  Now, I know the Exabyte 8500 /
8505 with the Adpro's Abekas saver can output to 8mm DATs which I could
then read on the Abekas editor (??? I've never tried it, only read it, so
please guide me here on how easy or difficult this would be).  What format
do I render my LW animation to and what size (for PAL output, not NTSC,
btw.)
