Timothy, when you output your video file using a 320 X 240 clip size, you need to specify "Zoom X 2" "using Software" in the Print to Video dialogue box. Larry said that if you record your video and edit your video both in 320 X 240, then you will only be compying your video frames instead of recompressing them. That's true unless you have transitions and filters added to your video clips; then Prmiere recompresses the video. AT which point, you might as well specify a data transfer rate, (pick a high one, as high as your system can stream out smoothly). The guy to talk to at Adobe is Nick Schlott on 71311,2050, you can sometimes find him on this forum, but he is really good at answering in the Adobe Forum, unless he is buried in getting a release of Premiere Mac/Windows out the door. He is one of the principal engineers of the product, his name is on the credits, and there's even a video of him on the Premiere 4.0 CD. So, basically he knows his stuff. Best, Scott
