I must first say that I have been a passionate Apple Evangelist since<br>my conversion in 2000. But, today I just found out that OSX<br>(Quicktime, iDVD) has no way of handling MPEG-2 that comes of my<br>hauppage PVR-500.

</blockquote><div><br>Unfortunately so. It gets worse when you learn that QuickTime Pro ($30) doesn't provide MPEG-2 capabilities, so if you want both, that'll run you $50.<br> </div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
I thought I would be brilliant about dealing with the fact that<br>KnoppMyth cannot burn DVDs out of the box by using my Mac.</blockquote><div><br>You can. Not that hard. <br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
This just sucks.</blockquote><div><br>Not if you know what to do! <br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">--<br>,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,
