Momopi,

Some of the videos I recorded in my new digital camera take up a lot of room, like hundreds of megabytes, and my laptop is running out of hard drive space.

I do have a converter software that converts the videos to another format that takes up much less space though, but which video format is best? Does it make a difference if it's MPG, MOV, WMV, MP4, etc.? Does it matter? Which format is the most compatible with everything?

Thanks,
Winston

Most of the HD digisubs I watch today are H.264 with .MKV extension. I no longer work with video so you'll have to read up the specs yourself:
