dazzle capture 80 usb, 4 min avi is >1gb!!!????

[diviwadhwa]

I use dazzle usb external device, which has audio,video and s-video inputs.
THe software that comes with it is MGI videowave 4.

So when i inout say for eg tv, i am able to get the video of it on that software as an avi. BUT, teh quality seems to be little off, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, the size of say a 4 min capture is more than a 1GB!!!!!

Can someone help me whta i shud do? Or shud i use a diff capture card? if diff capture card then can someone suggest me, something upto$100?

MY intention eventually is to convert, audio/video casstetes, dvds and tv to vcds.


Thanks,
Divi

Dont use MGI videowave 4 and try VirtualDub or AVI_IO and try Divx or Mpeg4
