Hello,
I've checked out approx 600 posts which does not answer my questions. What codecs to install to get best a/v performance in both dv & mpeg2? How to install said codecs? I've heard that microsoft's dv codec is only good when playing back not recording, I've heard that MainConcept's dv codec is the best for playback & recording. Now I'm not sure which is the best mpeg1&2 codec to install for playback & recording..? I've heard that for replacing the ms dv codec with say MainConcept dv codec you have to rename it and replace it with the MS dv codec..? Is there a how-to or a website that has both minidv & mpeg2 system optimization setup instructions...?

Thanks for your time & effort
