Only good forum I think to post this question.
I bought the plextor capture box. I was currently ripping VHS at the 2 Hour record rate. However it is not as "clean" as I would like. My guess is that box records at "fixed bit rate" and not variable. The software that came with it (intervideo) does an okay job but can not "recompress".
My question is...is there a reasonably priced DVD editing package that can do at least "2 Pass" recompression of an MPEG2 file. This way I could record the video at full quality 6-GB/hour from the VCR and then do a VBR recording on the final pass for the authored DVD. This way I could keep 2 hours on a single disc w/o having to split it up.
