What happens if you try to record directly from the
camcorder (unedited) to the DVD recorder?

Is your camcorder digital? Are you transferring the
video via the IEEE-1394 (FireWire/iLink) interface?

If so, why are you saving in WMV format? You should
save in DV-AVI format.

What type of connection do you use between your
camcorder and your DVD recorder?

Sorry for all the questions, but the more information
you provide, the more likely it will be that someone
will be able to help.
