Hello All -

I'm a pretty experienced video producer/editor, and I've just gotten a gig
to produce an archival CD ROM. The client has about 6 hours of VHS video
he'd like digitized to CD, with accompanying text and simple graphics. I'm
thinking 160x120 AVI video, 16 bit 22K sound, running in a window on the
right. Text and graphics to the left, all set up in Director. My question:
how much of this kind of program will fit on a CD? I have no idea how big
my AVI files will be. If you can recommend a good source book (or web site)
for this kind of tech info, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks -
