I am using Alchemy TV from Miglia. It's the same device, program, and  
settings I have always used. I have it set to record in DV/DVCPro,  
just like always. The files have always been 20 or more GB. I used  
the same settings to convert all my VHS tapes to DVD. As long as the  
running time was less than 2 hours, a regular blank DVD would work.  
But not now.

Thanks

Kevin
