From what I gather from the help pages, etc, the best way to capture is to capture as AVI then convert to MPEG from that. However, when I tried capturing as AVI last night, a three minute capture chomped its way through 1.8Gb....600meg a minute! That was using Huffy with MMC on highest resolution. I calculate that to be around 70Gb for a 2 hour capture! Surely people don't keep a spare 80Gb drive just for capturing when it doesn't leave space for storage!

You need space to capture well. Unfortunately.
I use VirtualDub with Huffyuv / PCM
2 Hours takes up approx. 35 gig~~~Spidey~~~
