Is this normal?
As mentioned it is normal. You can adjust the data rate in the
recording profiles. If you are recording analog from the air, then
you might reduce the horizontal resolution from 720 pixels to 400
and reduce the datarate accordingly.
And you can transcode to MPEG4 to reduce the data rate even
further. But in that case you should better have a high rate in the
MPEG2 to achieve a better MPEG4 result.
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure the PVR-500 outputs MPEG-2, not MPEG-4, so
this kind of defeats the purpose of owning the PVR-500 (assuming he
purchased it with the MPEG-2 output in mind). Wouldn't it actually
put *more* stress on the system to transcode the output from a
PVR-500 card to MPEG-4 since the system has to decode the MPEG-2
stream in addition to encoding the MPEG-4 stream?
