Steve -

DV/NTSC is literally "Digital Video / National Television Standards Committee." It is the format used in high-end consumer digital video cameras and recorders. It is a higher-end, high-quality compression and encoding method (particularly in comparison with older encoding standards such as Cinepak or MPEG-2). I think you will not have any problems with it (certainly none like last year), and will like it.
