Burned video is jumpy like the frames per minute is too slow
I have a Canon HG-10 that I burned a video in HD mode (highest setting) it looks great on the HD TV we have but when I burned it to a DVD I know I have to lower the resolution which I did. But now it is jumpy like the frames per minute are not enough. How do I increase the frames per minute on the video before I burn the DVD?
Frames per minute? or Frames per second?
What I meant was frames per second, not per minute. It is now set at 29.7 frames per second. It looks like the frames per second is too slow because it is jittery. I need to know how to adjust the frames per second to a faster rate.

I don't think it has anything to do with the frame rate, but with your field order setting. I'm not sure about your camera - is it mini-dv? If so, your field order should be lower field first. Your project settings should therefore be lower field first, as too should your output settings.

I have had a similar thread going on about making the best DVD picture from a HD original, and the advice I received was useful.
It all comes down to when the conversion from HD to DVD takes place, and my final answer is not in yet, and it may involve something I have not tried yet (using a stand-alone DVD recorder in an intermediate step).
I have tried two options so far, and one is definitely superior. The bad choice is to take your HD movie, then share a new video file which is DVD-compliant. This step takes a long time. Then you take this file, and create a disc. Since the file is DVD-compliant, its very fast. You choose the identical field-first parameters, best bit-rate and everything else, and you still end up with a jumpy video.
The better choice (for me, using HDV) is to take the HD movie, and then create a DVD disc. In this burning module, then choose same field-first choices, best bit-rates, etc, and the burn the disc. Takes a long time, because the movie needs to be converted, then burned. Using this method, the jumpiness disappeared. Still not completely happy with the quality of the video, though.
The exact opposite quality occurs when making a HD DVD. The first method produces a perfect copy of my original, the second method produces jumpy video. (First method is very fast, as no re-encoding is going on. Second method, even though no conversion is supposed to take place, something does happen, and the quality is bad).
Based on my past experience with digital-8, I am thinking the best method may involve my stand-alone DVD recorder, which converts either analogue TV or firewire AVI to DVD in real-time. You either use the analog outputs of the camera, or force the camera to to output only regular definition picture through the firewire. It produced superior quality video to software-based encoding. Then I will take this home-made DVD, import into VS, and then work with it in this form. When outputting to DVD, make sure all parameters match so that minimal re-encoding takes place. I suspect that the "hardware" encoders in standalone DVD recorders are superior to the "software" encoders in most consumer programs.
