Video quality

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

I captured my video with:
Display size: 860x640 pixels.
Each minute of video saved whith this setting will consume 14 MB.
The video that I got is too "granular" !!!
How can I get better quality ?
How can I change the Display size settings in the Windows Movie Maker ?

You're capturing at a higher resolution than the video
frames actually are, and they're getting resized.

See here for some info:

This is a strange size. how did you do it?

Youneed to be using a Firewire card and cable to capture. This allows you to
capture in best quality possible i.e. in DV AVI format.
