Re: Basic questions about "video streaming"

Yeup, just figured out the bit about image size after a bit of trial
& error!

You also need to set the option in the advanced setup for build for it not
to ask you for the volume name stuff.

Dean, if you want to hang on for a bit, I'm going to test a script
overnight that includes some deletion of source files (I have to do this to
free up space on the disk and have tested it out...)

I'll post the final batchfile text tomorrow.
