[mythtv-users] Storage space and PVR-250

I just set up a mythtv box using a pvr-250 as the capture card. I
scheduled a recording of a 1/2 hour tv show, and it worked well. When I
played back the recording it looked great. So far so good. However that
1/2 hour recording takes up 13gb on my disk. I would like to find a more
efficient way to store recordings even if I have to sacrifice some
quality.

How do I set up mythtv to reencode the recordings to a more space
efficient format?

Which format should I use? I want to be able to view the recordings
across an 802.11b wireless link. 

Thanks
