Hello all, Just a further query regarding EyeTV . Which file format should be used when exporting an EyeTV recording (before burning it to DVD) 1. For best picture quality when watching the DVD on a computer ? 2. For making it watchable on any DVD player AND computer ? 3. For fitting the most content on a DVD ?
