Hello, just wondering after recording the shows using a Hauppauge WINTV-PVR-USB2 through the GBPVR software... how can i make the size of the video files smaller. I keep reading on how 1 hr of video is 3 GB of space.

Thanks

:confused: One hour of my mpeg2 recordings (with all of the standard bitrates) takes up about 1/2 of that.

In the config screen of capture source, you change the medium quality to a smaller number variable bitrate.
