Amateur Video Production Using Free Software and Linux
(Linux Journal). In this Linux Journal article, the author looks at
converting VHS tapes to DVDs, using free software of course. "Even
when compressing a video stream before writing it, hard disk speed is
important in digitizing video. It follows that the filesystem used is
a large factor in performance. I have experimented with the ext2,
ReiserFS and XFS filesystems. My experience is that capturing video to
an XFS filesystem generally outperforms capturing to ext2- or
ReiserFS-formatted disks. XFS has the additional benefit over ext2 of
being a journaling filesystem."
