[POSTED TO rec.video.desktop - REPLY ON USENET PLEASE]

Upgrade to Windows 2000 or XP. Use NTFS.

John - did you even read the guy's post? NTFS is required for large file sizes but it
will do NOTHING to solve his problem - which is most likely related to a heavily
fragmented drive, DMA issues, or perhaps his system just isn't compatible with the WinTv
card.

Also keep in mind that MPEG takes a fair bit of horsepower to encode, I
would recomend trying one of the MJPEG codecs, perhaps the Morgan. As Keith
said the entire system needs to be working properly to work on a slower
system like this. The slower systems that you have quoted probably had
dedicated video in/out cards with horsepower on the card rather than using
the CPU,, TV cards have little HP onboard.

I would not recomend going to XP or Win2k as they both have a much greater
overhead just to run the OS (just ignore John as he posts some stupid stuff
sometimes).

Have a look at www.videoguys.com for their tweaking guide.

Cheers.

That sounds like interlacing. Play around with the inverse telecine
function in VirtualDub, it can substantially reduce it.
