Does that include audio desync errors?

Very cool to hear. Does it have better video compression now too, or am I still going to be having 5 minute 8 GB video files?

You can compress it yourself assuming you're not letting it run for 2 hours before you start manual compression.  The best quality-for-size tradeoff format is .rvmb at 200 MB for an hour since .avi is usually about 500 MB for half an hour.

Oh I know, it was just a major hassle on my old computer when I only had ~1gb of free hard drive :P

The files are always going to be big, theres only so much compression you can do in real-time especially when it can record at resolutions upwards of 1920x1200.
