Hi all. Here is my issue:

I have my crummy ATI card working now, hooked into coax for cable TV. I have downloaded VirtualDub for recording. I also downloaded DivX. My goal is to record Seinfeld episodes. When I recorded my first Seinfeld Episode (30 min long) the file size is about 450megs. (I am recording straight to Divx (.avi) I think)

When I download other Seinfeld episodes online they are all between 40 - 80 megs large. My questions are:

1. How do I get my 450 Meg .avi file down to the 40 - 80 meg size.
2. How can I remove the commercials?

Thanks!
