Avchd editing best practives sticky

Okay, I understand the Edius doesn't render a preview. However, soon a later you need to export/encode to a delivery format.

Seems to me that takes a bunch of time.
 
True, but that is the case with ALL NLE's. Not rendering a "preview" has other benefits. Such as real time color correction on an external monitor. Not to mention that if you had a standalone BD-R/DVD-R recorder you could play the timeline out in real time directly into the recorder with no rendering for a quick copy. The others would need to render while I'm out the door on my way to my clients office/home.
