I've tried many combinations, and have gone through many DVDs. I am recording old video tapes rendering, burning onto dvd-r. I have tried high quality and good quality pre sets. I have tried FPS changes, Expensive DVDs, Cheap DVDs, different VCR, constant bit rate, variable bit rate, small menus, no menus, 80% quality, as low as 5000 kbs, MPEG1 and MPEG2. I'm not sure what to do next.
After rendering the DVD and then watching on my home DVD player (I've tried 2 of those as well), the video is jumpy..... but no frame loss. I am using an ATI all in wonder 8500 to capture.
I am running winXP pro sp2, 1 Gig of RAM, 2.29 GHz Processor. Using Movie Factory 3.
Any one have any advice?

Check your DVD players IDE device is set at DMA not PIO.mstecyk wrote:I've tried many combinations, and have gone through many DVDs. I am recording old video tapes rendering, burning onto dvd-r.

Hi,
Using that Capture Card and with the speed of your computer you are able to
capture in real-time DVD compliant files. When you capture DVD compliant files
and DO NOT edit them then when you import them into MF3 you can create a
DVD very quickly.
To start off are you capturing at the correct frame-rate?
This is an example using theATI wonder TV recorder to capture video.
NTSC settings:
In the ATI Recorder create a template:
Give the template a name, Use Mpg
[Next Screen]
FrameSize = 720x480
DVD (left side of template creation screen)(this lets you choose lpcm audio if you want)
Frame-rate=29.97
Audio = 48,0000 16bit Stereo (this will assign mpeg audio).
[Next Screen]
P=4
B=2
Check ON for GOP (yes, you want GOP's)
[Next Screen]
Variable Bit Rate
Top Bar = 8000kbs (Do not go higher than 9)
Target Bit Rate = 6 to 8 (I would suggest 6 to start with)
Compression = 100% (If you drop frames then lower this settings)
Audio = 224kbs (The audio setting will change if on the first screen you choose
a template of DVD and use 48000 stereo PCM as the audio, The setting I'm suggesting
you to use for audio is 16 bit 48,000 stereo which is mpeg audio). In MF you can
keep the mpeg audio or change it to Dolby.
Save the template.
Assign your recording directory. For you information the ATI recorder records the
file into a sub-directory below the directory you assign when you setup the recorder.
That's the screen where it asks you about the VCR extension format. After the files
recorded it's copied to the recording directory you assigned in the recorder.
These directories should be on the same drive so after you finish recording it simply
moves the temp file pointer to the correct directory. Otherwise it will have to copy
the file across 2 harddrives which takes time to do.
That would be a dvd compliant file and does not need to be re-rendered for dvd.
In MF import the video, make chapters etc.
At the bottom of the screen click on the GEAR ICON. Make sure that
"Do Not Convert Mpeg Compliant Files" Is CHecked ON.
If you want to convert the audio then check the box ON for
"Do not consider Mpeg audio as dvd compliant".
Then the audio will be changed to your "Project Settings" audio settings.
You can use MF to capture with but you need to create a template or directly
change the capture settings and use the above settings. If you create a template then
create the template and then assign the template as your project settings.
Some of the default templates in MF are using Frame-based and you need to use
field-based for viewing on a television.
Do not let MF choose the field for recording analog video with that card.
Manually set the field to "Upper Field First" (field B).
It's better and easier to capture using the ATI software and import the video into MF.
Hope this helps,
MD
