Sorry, I missed smoething out there.  What I meant was when I take the rawrgb 
file and convert it to a 700MB Dvix file, the quality is *so* good... I 
didn;t notice any artefacts (or blocking) in the test files I did, and A/V 
sync was excellent.

Aboout 48GB for 2 hours; I have a 53GB file, but that's because I accidently 
run a little over the end of the movies.  I would like to clip that last 
little bit off, preferably in an editor.

I thought perhaps I could encode to a Divx file with a high video bitrate, 
clip the end off that I don't need, then re-encode to a 700MB Divx file.

Someone else suggested this, and I took a look, but it seems to only handle DV 
format (or is that just a generic term?  I thought "DV format" was what 
digital camcorders produced. Would rawrgb format qualify under this?)

I will give it a go, and see what happens.  Thank you for your input.
