I think for a vdr-newbie it is more helpfull to know the average rate than the highest GB per hour rate. BTW: what is the date-rate range for DVB ? If i look at DVD-data-rates, the differences of various films are very big, the differences in data-rate in recordings are minimal. ...Andreas -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
