I'm famously against MiniDisc recording. There was a long and protracted discussion on here a year or two ago. I remember my issue was time sync. I attempted a mini disc recording and found there was significant drift time wise between the MD and video. Others though disputed that.

I'm very much in favour of multi track recording - a camera linked into the desk and others static collecting ambient then mixing it all together. I guess it all comes down to how much gear you have or can afford.
