Hi,
Well I use Apple DVD Studio PRO for converting m2t file to a DVD. But I think other programs on Windows can do the same.
But I have a little question for you. I see you have a Canon XL H1. And the file capture by your computer are M2T files. The XL H1 records to tape, and a computer program captures the files from that tape. How big are those files. How many GigaBytes for one hour ? For the moment I'm still shooting DV (Canon XL1) but I want to upgrade. Can you help me with my questions.

Thanks for the feedback...

Thanks. Can you give me a sample off about 5 sec (else the file is going to be too big to send) so I can see the quality and that I can try to import it in FCE. so I can play with it.

Thanks...

I'm having the A1 which has the same compression codec but cannot output
uncompressed. For me that doesnt matter. You can see tonnes of quality footage
on www.vimeo.com just search for XH-H1 or XH-A1. There is heaps of sample
footage also on this and the XH-A1 site at

http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/forumdisplay.php?f=138

as well as alot helpful people around.

Good luck.
