Default HD or BluRay?

The physical layer of an OTA HD signal supports up to
21 Mb/s. That translates to about 20 GB in two hours.


My MPEG captures of very detailed OTA HD TV programs (a sports event, a live
awards show) run about 4 GB every 40 minutes. That is 12 GB every 2 hours.

So 20 GB/2 hours is the equivalent of OTA HD.


The channel I captured runs a second SD subchannel of weather information.
It sort of adds up.
