I recently upgraded to R5B7 from R5A16 and everything works except that the size of the video files recorded are 66% larger even with the same Default video settings on a PVR500 card.

Files were about 1.2G per hour now they are about 1.8G per hour.

Resolution 720x480
MPEG-2 PS
Bitrate: 2200
Max Bitrate 4500

Anyone else seen this? Is more info needed?

I have also noticed that using resolutions other than 720x480 with card look grainier than simply sticking to that.

Thanks in advance.

The recordings from my PVR cards are still the same size as they always have been at roughly 2.2-2.3Gb/hour or 1.1-1.2Gb/30min. The quality looks prety much the same too...
