Re: Vista DVD Maker Problem

Thanks so much for your help John. I have managed to generate my
movie in an .avi and a .wmv mode but still need to burn my DVD.

However before I do so I have another issue which has now arisen and
with which I hope somebody will be able to assist.

When viewing the movie especially in grassland scenes parts of the
picture occasionally appear to swim and blur a little. I have not had
this problem before and clearly I would prefer to address this
problem if possible before finalising my DVD.

I first published it in what appears to be the best possible
resolution in the AVI mode where a 20 minute video takes up around
4.2Gig. When I noticed the bluring problem and I thought it may
relate to the format and so I made one in the .wmv format. However
although the reolution on this format is nowhere near that of the
.avi format at only 1.2GB the picture quality did not appear visible
inferior although the picture is a little smaller. However this
format also still shows the blur/vibration in parts of certain of the
pictures. It is not throughout the movie but in certain particular
scenes.

I also tried to publish it in HD format as the next highest
resolution but for some reason it would not complete the process.

I formally used Pinnacle which was excellent quality. In your opinion
does Windows Movie Maker match up to the same quality standard?

Your help will be appreciated.

Thanks
==============================
I could be completely wrong on this but
it sounds like you have an issue with your
monitor...possibly it's a flat panel LCD
which in my opinion don't have the same
quality as Analog monitors.

Personally...I would go ahead and create
the DVD in the hopes that the DVD would
look better once on the TV screen.

Good luck.
