DV-AVI is 13MB file size per hour of video. If you choose MS AVI with None compressor, that's uncompressed video file. That will really give you the best quality but the file size should be even bigger than DV-AVI.

Hi Steve and Sharon: Check your file size, it should be HUGE. I've been making the mistake of using DV AVI; when what I really needed was on the next line up (microsoft avi) I think, AND then scroll down the compressor and at the bottom choose "None". That should get you "best quality".
