[MacDV] Local Cable TV Video Quality

[R B Williams]

I don't know if this is always true, but our community access station in Nashville TN
requires that all programming be produced locally by a resident of the county. We do use
mini dv as a source sometimes, but then playback at the station is on Beta SP !!!
