The videos now, although large for some, are the most compressed, but also the best quality, so the perfect blend since the 720 x 480 videos can be transferred to DVD to watch on TV. Ok but quarter frame i.e. 352 x 288 (or 320 x 240 for NTSC I believe), done in Divx results in some very good quality too, fine for playback on my hardware divx dvd player. Just think you could save a whole load of bandwidth. David.
