Note: Only available on supported products (PVR / HVR that use a 'hardware encoder') The WinTV supports several formats for MPEG video compression, called Quality Levels. The differences in these formats are:. The higher the datarate, the better the video quality you see from live TV and your recordings. The higher the datarate, the more disk space which will be required. CPU horsepower required during playback and pause mode. The compatibility when creating Video CD’s or S-VCD’s.

To configure the MPEG Quality Level, on WinTV click the Preferences button, then Capture and then the MPEG tab. Here are the video formats and the amount of disk space per hour used: MPEG2 2.0MBits/sec (Full D1).9 Gigabytes/hour MPEG2 2.0MBits/sec (Half D1).9 Gigabytes/hour MPEG2 12.0 MBits/sec (Full D1) 5.4 Gigabytes/hour MPEG2 12.0 MBits/sec (CBR) 5.4 Gigabytes/hour DVD Standard Play 8.0Mbits/sec 3.1 Gigabytes/hour DVD Long Play 6.2Mbits/sec 2.4 Gigabytes/hour DVD Extra Long Play 2.5 Mbits/sec 1.2 Gigabytes/hour SVCD Standard Play 2.5Mbits/sec.8 Gigabytes/hour Note: CBR is constant bit rate, VBR is variable bit rate. Which record format should you use? If you would like to burn a DVD, then chose either DVD Standard Play, DVD Long Play or DVD Extra Long Play. DVD formats record at 720x480 (720x576 with PAL video sources) using 48.0 kHz stereo audio. If you want to watch the recorded video on your PC, for the best video quality chose MPEG2 12.0MB/sec or DVD Standard Play. If you do not have much disk apace, try the MPEG-2 2.0MB/sec.

SVCD is a nice compromise between video quality and hard disk space. Video is recorded at 480x480 (480x576 for PAL video) at a datarate up to 2.5Mbits/sec. Once chosen, the Quality Level format is set for both the Pause and Record modes. The format cannot be changed while Recording or while in the Pause mode. DVD players which are compatible with CD’s and MP3’s can also read DVD’s burned using MPEG video files created with the WinTV.
