Well, that's kind of correct. I do use the 8 gig DVD+R Double Layers, though, since they can now be had for around $1.50 or so. I know this is way more than two regular DVD's but it's also half the space on the shelf.

But whatever archive format I use must meet two criteria:

1) Has to be compatible with Ulead for DVD authoring and burning.

2) Has to have decent quality. I capture around 6Mbs going in... what they term DVD quality at the 2 hour rate... so if I can get something close to this with Dvix and save on space, that's my goal.
