[X4U] Video recording meetings with iSight

[Scott McCulloch]

I may have spoken too soon... I just discovered that QT Pro's presets  
for image size (the movie dimensions) change depending what machine  
you're on.

I was testing on my G5 and the preset size is 320 X 240, which is  
fine for our purposes. When I tried it on my Powerbook, the QT Pro  
preset size for recording video is 240 X 180 - which is probably a  
bit on the small side for what we need.

Unfortunately, I still haven't managed to get the "right" balance of  
dimensions, quality, and file size using BTV -- and it appears to  
gobble up hard drive space while recording, so recording a three or  
four hour meeting on a Powerbook is a no-go with BTV... unless I've  
missed something - BTV experts feel free to chime in and point me in  
the right direction ;-)

Thanks,
Scott
