best capturing and rendering setting
If I want to capture, then edit and then render a video file from sony dv40e camcorder then what will be the best setting for capturing and rendering to dvd/cd in vs11+? Also kindly tell me what is smart proxy and what will be the setting at the time of render? what will be the field order? and what i select in device control> pl. help.
I believe this is a MiniDV camcorder. If that iscorrect, you should capture to AVI/DV and this will transfer and re-package the DV data without altering it.
The DV resolution is identical to the standard DVD resolution (720x480 for NTSC, 720x576 for PAL) All of the "settings" will be the same, except the DVD will be MPEG, and you can adust the MPEG bitrate. (Higher bitrate = better quality = bigger files.)
If you are making a VCD or SVCD, Video Studio's project templates will help you with the settings. Again, a higher bitrate will result in higher quality and bigger files.
I believe Smart Proxy only applys to high definition editing. It renders/displays a standard definition image during editing so that you are not slowed-down by high definition rendering. When the final rendering is done, the computer can take it's time and render in true high definition. (It has no effect on the final video quality.)

You capture your video in DV format as Doug suggested. If you want the project properties to match those of the captured video, then make sure you have 'Show message when insert first video clip' ticked in File > Preferences. You also do all your editing in DV format.
After editing, you first convert the project (as we recommend) to DVD compatible mpeg-2: Share > Create Video File > DVD. Make sure here that the Field Order remains the same as the original DV -- which normally will be Lower Field First. Choose a bitrate appropriate to the size of your project: for a maximum of around 1 hour of video on a single layer DVD, used a bitrate of 8000 kbps which gives high quality; 6000 kbps for around 90 minutes of good quality; and 4000 kbps for 2 hours of average quality. You will fit a little more on if you use one of the more compressed audio formats like Dolby or mpeg layer 2 instead of LPCM.
Once you have your mpeg-2, save your project, then open a new one. Don't worry about a name for it -- the objective is just to clear the timeline.
Then you go to Share > Create Disc, insert your new mpeg-2 into the burning timeline, make your menu and burn. Also, make sure 'do not convert compliant mpeg files' is ticked in the middle of the three icons in the bottom left of the burning screen. You should not have to adjust any of the properties in the burn module.
