What Gud compression to convert 720p Kingdom Hearts Files??

[dvstudio3]

Okay well i ripped some High Definition scenes from Kingdom Hearts and converted them all to Lagarith and the files are immense i.e. 2GB for 3min


Anyways i plan to do some editing with them although i'd rather the file size not to be that huge ;? Is there anyway i can reduce the file size by more than half while still beinig able to edit smoothly and retaining the quality of the files????????

at present Lagarith is the lowest file size lossless... if you compress it any smaller then you will have to get into lossy codecs...
