I concurr, I'm going to be outputting my laserdisc captures to 2 different formats, DVD & XviD, not poxy 700mb single CD sized avis but ones that'll individually fill a single layer DVD-R, up the quality settings etc. in XviD and the resulting filesize will increase.

I use huffy & mjpeg compression when I want lossless (huffy) or near-lossless (mjpeg) compression that encodes & decodes fast, there's also the MSU lossless codec that compresses even better than huffy but at a significant speed cost.
