Hi, Just to clarify: My machine: AMD 1.2G HD 40GB RAM 256MB Redhat 7.2
I'd like to edit movie from Camcorder. At the end of the day, after editing the movies, I would like to store the movies in CDR (mpeg format). Thanks for the help. -=Hanny --- Vidiot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ed Marczak responded: > > >I took the 1.2G to be processor speed, not disc. > He never mentioned how > >much disc he has. > > Oops, you are right, processor speed, not disc size, > which should have been > listed. > > >> A 100 GB drive, used solely for digital video, > will only hold 28000 seconds > >> of video, or about 7.77 hours of video.
