10gb p/hour capturing using huffyUV??

[buttsy00]

Hi i'm fairly new to capturing video but please bear with me!

It seems to be capturing at around about 170mb per minute which over 1 hour will work out to be around 10gb.

Does that sound right? Or is that larger than normal?

I am trying to capture from VHS using iuVCR and the HuffyUV compression method.

I am capturing at 352 x 288 (YUY2) and 25 fps.

The settings for HuffyUV are:

YUY2 compression method = Predict median (best)
RGB compression method = Predict gradient (best)

Audio is PCM - 44.100 kHz, 16 bit, mono (my capture card isn't stereo)

Yeah sounds about right.

I use iuVCR and the huffy codec also. I end up capturing at 720x480 (I think.....720 is right anyway). My captures are about 20 mins each and I average 10GB on those. Haven't tried anything that is an hour or over yet. I'm getting great quality on old vcr tapes.

Costs me 30 to 36 GB an hour to capture Huffyuv in 768*576 YUV2
