When I save the movie I make; the video is excellent quality in High
Quality
mode. Problem is that I need to save it to my DV (back to my camcorder
tape)
and it will only take .avi format, not the .wmv format that all the other
options are saved as. When I saved it to DV in the DV-AVI (.avi) format
and
played it on the TV, the quality of the video was poor (all smudgy and
stuff). I know its not the camcorder quality because it plays original
stuff
beautifully on the TV. Any suggestions on what I can do to get the high
quality video recorded back to my DV???? Is there some other program that
I
can use with Movie Maker to save in .avi or mpeg at a higher quality? I
tried saving it as High Quality (Large) and sending it to my camcorder DV.
It was all broken up, pretty messed up because I found out that the
camcorder
won't accept .wmv format. However the little bits that I could see were
crystal clear. That's how I know that other formats are producing high
quality video images but not the .avi format. Please Help!! Thanks!

DV-AVI is the actual file type for DV tape.
DV-AVI is "high quality mode"
When you are capturing from the camcorder are you capturing as it's native
DV-AVI, or are you converting "on-the-fly" to WMV during capture?
If you want to edit and send back to DV, then capture as DV-AVI
and export back as DV-AVI, ensuring settings are correct.
The most common mistake is if your Cam is PAL, but WMM is set to
capture as NTSC etc. Make sure settings match.
