I need to post a question about video compression and codecs, but can't find
a decent newsgroup. Can any of you knowledgeable people recommend one to me?

This is my question, should anyone here be able to help me:

I am Fire-wiring a bunch of tapes from my fathers camcorder onto my PC and
want to compress the files using the codec used for DVDs so I can pick and
choose video files and quickly burn various DVDs without having to re-encode
over and over. I have a copy of Ulead DVD Movie Factory 5 Plus which I use
to create DVDs and I believe it will work with DVD compatible files and
create DVDs without re-encoding.
