I have a Pioneer 701, which I connected to my Sony DCR-TRV33 digital camcorder, using the analog/digital pass-through to capture and transfer the footage to my computer. I used Sony Vegas for the capture/manipulation, as well as to create a 5.1 soundtrack (I software-decoded the PCM sountrack with Pro-Logic II, created 5 mono .wav's, and then combined them into an .ac3 file.)
I used DVD-Lab Pro for authoring, so that I could get the commentary track on as well. In a few minutes, I'll see how it finally looks (after days of trouble-shooting various menu glitches.)
I'm curious to know why people are choosing to use the Def. Col. transfer over the "Faces" set, which was cleaned up the most. The CAV feature of the Def. Col. only aides in still shots, does it not?
