You could produce a DivX file with a bitrate of over 5000 if wanted, giving you picture-perfect quality. If it puts a heavier load on the CPU, I can't be sure though, and you would not be able to play it in a common DVD player either. I thought about this one, and recconed that if you tried to hit 1 Gig per DivX, you would be left with super quality, and could fit 4 movies on one DVD. But is this worth it, I'm not sure either. DVD's (blank) have reduced in price, but are not cheap yet here in Holland. Greetings Ralph -- http://axljab.homelinux.org:8080/ "...the software said Win95 or better, so I installed Linux"
