    Hi,

    can anyone tell me what is the best bit rate for recording from the UPC DVR to a DVD recorder?

    by that I mean getting the best picture possible off the box but without using more space than is necessary (i.e. because it is the best possible picture)

    is that understandable??:confused:

    cheers

    You have no control over the bit rate...

    Assuming he's talking about recording from the SCART output, I think he means on the DVD recorder, over which he does have control, i.e. differing quality settings resulting in larger or smaller recordings.
