hipix dtv-200

$400

saw that earlier and i'm wondering if anyone has one. I saw some people over at avsforums.com do. What i'm mainly wondering is I know that video is takin from the mpeg2 stream itself and not reencoded to huffy or mpeg 2 or whatever. so you don't loose quality. now a 1920x1020 sounds good to me. What i'd like to know is how is do you like it and has it worked good if you have one. and say you wanna run your captures through cinema craft to make them fit on a cd. So around 2500kbit. How would you go about doing that with the 1minute files it makes.

140mb per min and for 60min show there would be 60 of them. Now ofcourse you want to edit out commercials. So how would you go about doing that and then encoding it in cinemacraft?
