I appreciate the answer but my question was.... how do I format a video I
took directly from my camera..no DVD.. I downloaded it direct from the camera
tape...INTO MPEG4 or AVI format with Windows Movie Maker???
I also watched the same YouTube video on the computer at work...not on my
laptop at home... and it's blurred. Not as good as the original or other
video segments I see that are crisp and clean.
HOW DO I SAVE MY MOVIE MAKER VIDEO PROJECTS INTO AVI FORMAT? You can't do
it from the WMM program, can you???
?????

I just made my first video...transitions are great...I'm happy with the thing.
in general...but when I posted it to YouTube and to MySpaceTV the quality was
a JOKE. This was a high quality video of my buddy who is ... oh man, what an
embaressment... so I went online.
Now I know to try for the MPEG4, AVI format..etcetc. Well.. how do I save
the video on WMM into that kind of format? I have looked everywhere in the
program and it's all just too uncooperative.
I really need to fix this video. I have to make 5 more... and trust me... I
have to fix the quality. It needs to be CRISP..not blurry.
(video is on my page...www.myspace.com/westendmgmnt)
I'm at a loss.
Please, please help.

If you are watching the edited video on your laptop the DVD resolution
images will naturally look poor because the computer has to interpolate the
lower resolution of the video on the LCD display. LCDs only look best at
their native (full) resolution. TV resolution is only ~720x480 and on top of
that the display is interlaced, not progressive like the computer display so
even more electronic fudging has to be done within the PC to deinterlace the
video data in the DVD files.
If the burned DVD has poor image quality when viewed on a TV that's a
different matter. You cannot increase the resolution but you can increase
the video encoding Bit rate. The higher the bit rate you use the more image
data that is preserved in the video file. This will increase the file sizes
however, if that is a consideration. If you are working with still images
you might also get better looking results if you resize the images down to
720x480 with image editing software before you put them into the video.
Movie Maker's resizing/resampling algorythms might not be as good as
dedicated photo editing software would have.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I (and my laptop) won't be present
when
my daughter's school play her video, so it has to be on DVD. I have
bought a
firewire cable today and so will try it to see if I can improve the
picture
quality. Any other suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks

If you can bypass the disc/DVD entirely, you can play higher quality such
as
High Def content if you can connect your computer to a hig screen
directly.

I too am trying to make the playback quality of a DVD better. My
daughter
has used our camcorder for a school project. She has edited it and
added
titles, however the playback quality is very poor compared to
connecting
the
camcorder to a TV directly. I am not sure it is good enough to show to
her
school.
I understand from your answer Papajohn that there are limitations as to
how
good the quality can be. But I don't understand the rest of your
answer.
Is
it possible to improve the quality - if so what do I do?
What is a photostory? Would that improve the quality of the playback
or
is
it something different entirely?

high quality DVD video is fixed by MPEG-2 standards at 720x480

that's a lot less than your images, so part of your issue is to
determine
how good a quality you can get when making a video.
a Photo Story may be better for your needs... it all depends on where
you're
heading with your videos.

Can someone tell me why the quality of the photos in a WMM video I
made
are
so poor? The original photos are of very good quality (2048 x 1536 -
24
bit)
and were taken with a digital camera. I found working with the
program
a
lot
of fun, but was very disappointed with the photos. The sound is
fine;
the
transitions and effects worked fine. It seems very inconsistent. Any
help
would ve appreciated. Thanks.
