Yes, Drew you were right - 9.1 frees up whatever hardrive space is available. I can capture large (3.5 gig and up) uncompressed files with Adobe Premiere. >Out of curiousity, what resolution are you using to capture? I'm >guessing 320x240... Do you know if the 8500 can acctually capture >640x480? My understanding of the Performa line of video capture cards >(and also the PowerMac G3) is that they can only capture at 320x240 >(or less) and then pixel double to higher resolutions. > The 8500 is capable of 320 x 240 capture, but I see no point in doing so as it eats resources. I set capture to only 240 x 180. OBTW my 604e-240 Power Computing card can render video streams as well as the G3. I am told 604e's do a better job at lip-syncing. Thanks again.
