If the playback is smooth, but you can't stand the picture quality, try increasing the bitrate without increasing the resolution and see if you can find a setting that works for you. If you must increase the resolution (to, say, 480x480), then you will have to substantially increase the bitrate (eg., I use at least 4500 kbps/sec at 480x480 or better). The more you must increase the bitrate, the less the chance that 802.11b is going to work for you.
Good luck!

I just set up a mythtv box using a pvr-250 as the capture card. I scheduled a recording of a 1/2 hour tv show, and it worked well. When I played back the recording it looked great. So far so good. However that 1/2 hour recording takes up 13gb on my disk. I would like to find a more efficient way to store recordings even if I have to sacrifice some quality.
How do I set up mythtv to reencode the recordings to a more space efficient format?
