Well, at least that what it said on the page I mentioned - that libdv exports both NTSC and PAL as 422. But I did not check that or anything. I am a real novice to digital video, and all the packing it still a bit of hocus pocus to me. > How are you playing/viewing the data? With playdv? Or some other > method? I watch the DV files correctly with mplayer.
