Rocky, it sounds like your time isn't worth enough to you to warrant using a Jaz for video segments. Your prev post was about what you considered the proper/cheaper way to produce a vid. segment. the question about how long to record to videotape is to verify that you can't go faster than real time. the question about recording to a jaz disk (I meant from hard-drive to jaz disk) was to illustrate how much faster it is to transfer the video segment to a cart vs a tape. My point is that someone doing lots of video work without a huge rack of vcr's all recording away in real time would save a lot of time using jaz disks instead of tape. If you're talking about a one-off and aren't concerned with the disk-to-tape recording time, by all means, use the hard drive and vcr and whatever you do don't decide half-way through to change a frame or two ON THE FINAL MEDIA. I'd rather be able to record 25 minutes of video onto portable media in a few seconds/minutes than real-time onto a vhs tape. That's my point. -Spank
