"MeBeJedi, THANKS a ton!!"

Not a problem. Didn't want you to do a whole lot of unnecessary work for nothing.

"Has anyone tried MSU codec for lossless compression? This would allow me to easily store the raw footage on a 100 gig drive. That would be amazing!!"

I've not tried MSU, but Huffy works great, and every program I've used recognizes it flawlessly. I had no qualms trying it based on Laserman's tried and true experience, and it's not let me down. I guess I could try MSU to see what the relative file sizes are.

[EDIT] Saw this on the MSU website...

Known problems:

* Sometimes doesn't install properly on Windows'98 (some problems in the .inf).
* Sometimes codec avalable from VirtualDub, but unavalable in Adobe Premiere 6.5. If you know how to solve it, please mail us! You won't be forgiven.

Hmmmm, I don't think I'm got to use this for my master files. Besides, Huffy is just behind it in both tests, so I'm content.
