Because of #blender's up coming 2.8 release I've started going down the rabbithole of video codecs again after noticing timeline performance increased when using DNxHD. I know using intermediary and intraframe codecs could help with timeline performance but you see it exacerbated in blender due two how the VSE works.

I'm thinking of testing out and comparing #huffyuv, #utvideo, and #FFv1 in via obs recording to see how they compare.
