Not sure off the top of my head. I think some shows are recorded in 480x480 and some in 704(?)x480. As for bitrates, that I can't remember. I'll have to check when I get home. I could never get a clear understanding of ratio of resolution to bitrate and what I should set them to respectively. However, whatever you guys recommend I'll do. I'd like to be able to at least fit 4 30 min shows on, or 2 one hour shows, at the bare minimum. This is regular cable broadcast and not HDTV and it's being recorded with a PVR-250.
I started a process with nuvexport last night, we'll see how that goes. But again, I'm still looking for solutions that might be better/different/easier. I really like how MythBurnDVD works (menu creation, etc) but the sound just doesn't work. Also, does anything address AC3 sound?
