The only things I have are iMovie, Toast, Retorspect (for backups, and NTI Dragon Burn. These last two came with OWC's Burner package along with the drive. Other than that, I don't have anything. > Actually, DV video is compressed (approximately 5:1 > ratio) - so 5 minutes/GB > isn't bad compared to uncompressed video ... ;). But I assume that's after you do the burn, right? It still takes a gig on my drive before hand. and that's after I export in iMovie. I assume the "clip" iMovie makes and stores on a different partition is also large. That's why I want to get the software to let me put that file on my largest drive as well. Right now it stroes it on a 30 gig partition (if it were empty), so my immediate limitation is less than 30 gigs for now, not 160. > BTW, there are software patches to get Apple DVD > Player to work with your > external FW DVD-R drive: > > For OS9 > <http://www.os9forever.com/DVDPlayer.html> > > For OSX > <http://www.wormintheapple.gr/macdvd/download4.html> Cool. I'll check those out. ===== Steve Hardy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Send a seasonal email greeting and help others.
