Thanks for your response. Not sure exaclty what you mean by your first
sentence, but i think i may have been unclear. So, to be exact, I used
Windows Movie Maker 5.1 to capture the video directly from Mini-DV tapes in
my Panasonic video camera (model NV-GS15) which I had connected to my
computer. Once captured in Windows Movie Maker I saved the PROJECT which is
saved as MSWMM file. Then I did all the editing and then went to FINISH MOVIE
and selected SAVE TO MY COMPUTER, I chose 'OTHER OPTIONS' and saved as avi
file but it plays back slightly distorted and trembly on my televisions and
plasma. Image is also more pixelated on the plasma. When I play it back on
the computer the music and the image/video is sometimes not in sync. I saved
the same project 2 or 3 times as an avi file. The last time I played back the
saved avi file on my computer the picture was ALOT slower than the music.
Previously I when I saved the same project as an avi file and played it back
on my computer the music was in sync with the picture but both the audio and
picture seemed jittery and it was worse where there was text, credit or
titles. Alot of picelation and the motion seemed broken up sometimes.

than wmv. Once in wmv there is no benefit really going to dv.avi, apart
from if you are using an app which doesn't accept wmv.
Where does the file come from? If captured from a cam using MM then opt for
the dv.avi option on capturing

Hi, I've been reading so much about burning a video file to dvd and
everything says to save the wmv file to avi and then burn the avi to dvd.
But
when I do that it's not clear on any of my televisions and its also more
pixelated and also the image seems abit jumpy. However if I leave it as a
wmv
and burn to dvd the output is much better on TV, text is not as pixelated
images are better and no jumpiness. Still, Im not that happy with the
quality. Should I try to save the Windows Movie Maker file in a different
format other than avi? I am using MyDVD vers.8 to burn.
Overall I just can't seem to understand why i have to change the wmv
format
to avi and then burn to dvd, when if i just burn straight from wmv to dvd
its
better?
