Using Premiere Elements, I can only capture to an AVI format - HUGE file size for 2 hour video. I tried using ULEAD Video Studio 8 to capture to an MPEG2 and it works, however the quality of the captured video is poor compared to what I get from DVD Express using CapWiz. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Garry Gross

The Ulead software allows direct capture from dv source to mpeg -- but the conversion relies on your computer being fast enough, and the settings you use will impact the quality of your captures. I would capture to dv .avi with the A/V Link. edit everything as dv .avi. Then as a last step before Authoring discs, convert to mpeg Regards, George
