    I'm trying to capture TV episodes recorded LP (3 per) on VHS. Meaning I have about 300 minutes of footage to capture off each VHS.

    My dilemma (sp.): I had been using Studio 8 for the entire process because of it's simplicity but now noticed the dredded audio sync.
    So I switched to virtualdub, but there's a problem. Whereas Studio 8 was captuing the whole 300 minutes into one avi file of about 11-12 GB, Virtualdub will take 30-35GB for the same thing! Does anyone know a way to reduce the size of these AVI capture files?

    Sidenote: How would you rate the encoding speed of Studio 8 versus TMPG? It's really easy in Studio 8 and I like that, but it's also slow. Thoughts?

    Well, you can try to change the codecs Virtual Dub is using to get better compression. By the way, TMPGEnc can take some time to encode as well.
