You're dead on!! I have one system that has an ATI "All in Wonder" Radeon 7500 video card that I use to record off the TV cable, DVD's, VHS tapes, etc. It looks like I'll be installing XP on that system because of the 4 gig (4.2 gig) max file size under FAT32. When using high resolution video captures on an average movie, storage requirements start at 3.8 gigs and go up from there. I understand there are software "gimmicks" that will extend FAT32 out to 16 gigs, or so, but they sound flaky to me. Don't want to cobble a drive just for some wierd "solution".
VCD, on the other hand, usually will be in the 600,000KB to 700,000KB range normally for a movie/program/etc. Works great with a 700 meg CD-R and FAT32. I plan on installing a DVD burner shortly and will move to higher resolution captures at that time. Meaning that system will need to have XP with NTFS to handle the much larger files sizes.....
