    Given that your system is fast enough, is capturing Uncompressed AVI better at saving quality than using the Huffy codec, when encoding to VCD?

  2. My best looking Music Video's on VCD or SVCD come out when using Uncompressed AVI, have tried Huffy and Indeo all 3 look good but the edge goes to uncompressed AVI, which by the way at a 4 minute Video at 480x480 is about 3 to 3.4 gigs in size.

    If your system is fast enough to encode to HuffyUV at the required resolution then there is no need to capture as an uncompressed AVI.

    HuffyUV is a lossless codec (unlike MJPEG, MPEG, DivX etc) so it produces video IDENTICAL to an uncompressed avi.

    The only downside is that it takes significantly longer to reencode a Huffy source than an uncompressed.
