Benchmarks - Generated Video Streams And Space Requirements
MPEG 2 requires the least storage space. Asus' proprietary format is a strong competitor, but only has half the TV resolution. MJPEG needs the most space. Elsa board users can't change the quality of the MJPEG results. Matrox has a High Quality setting (HQ) and a Low Quality setting (LQ) for its MJPEG format results.
At full TV resolution, the space requirement for videos is higher. MPEG 2 is again the best, MJPEG from Matrox (High Quality) requires a lot of hard disk space. 3dfx doesn't offer an editing function for videos at full TV resolution.
