You need to transfer it in .AVI and then encode the material to MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 using TMPGEnc or similiar.

tx for the info but that is cumbersome & time consuming task. Can you suggest any software or cheap hardware that will convert the DV to mpeg-1 in realtime or perhaps double the real time?

Also, I see few camcorders which boast of capturing it directly in mpeg....how good is that?

Pls help....regards,
Mehul

i know dazzle makes some that cap in mpeg.
do a search on the net...you will regret it after you spend the money on a cap card that does mpeg and find out you want avi later and have to get a new card, whereas if you took a few extra minutes and converted the avi to mpeg you will be more happier.

your suggestion of double real time is impossible..get it?...REAL TIME?

Spend $600 and buy AMD 1GHz+ spare computer to do the encoding for you if you're afraid that you can't use your computer while it's encoding (no need for monitor, etc) -- wiser way to spend the money than buying an expensive and pretty useless encoding card.

Always remember: faster the encoding process, crappier the result.
