Graham, While waiting for replies, I tried burning with a new 16x DVD disc at 4X using the same mpeg file. It also jerks like the previous one. I don't know if it helps but watching the DVD playback closely, I see that the jumps/jerks appear to actually be momentary pauses in the video every 2 seconds or so.skier-hughes wrote:PC maintenance is always a good idea, but I'd opt for Ken's suggestion of dropping back the video bitrate and I'd go for 7500, so coupled with the audio bitrate of 256 you don't exceed 8000.
As the mpeg plays smoothly on the pc we know it's got to be in the dvd authoring / burning stages, so if you have a dvd drive cleaner, use it, then drop bitrates and try again.
Burned DVD Jerky Video

Graham & all who replied. Thanks to your helpful guidance, my last DVD (about 5 minutes) plays smoothly all the way through. Using the same settings, is there any reason that longer movies (1 to 1 1/2 hours) will not play just as well?skier-hughes wrote:PC maintenance is always a good idea, but I'd opt for Ken's suggestion of dropping back the video bitrate and I'd go for 7500, so coupled with the audio bitrate of 256 you don't exceed 8000.

Heres my 2 cents>>>>>>>>>>>>
Droppin frames will def cause jerk. < Happened to me many a time, and resulted in stuttered video. This was footage that was recorded on another cam and I tried to capture on my Canon.
Solution - use a minidv or footage however you record and capture. Burn a disk with that footage and see what comes up? If you get clear footage then its your media.
If that fails - clean your disk with a cleaner disk. Give that a whirl and see the results are. Then try your original footage
Ken " The dood always on a jet in another country"Berry made a good point by using a lower burn speed. I would use this as the 3rd phase of troubleshooting.
Looks like you have several issues and need to work your way down the list and figure it out.
Oh and use a fresh DVD when you burn, thats like recording over a already recorded MiniDV. I know it isnt crucial but it may affect it always a chance.
Ahhhhhhhhh gotta love PC's and Video. Hardware, Software, Media and user error
Wait till you get a bad power supply I worked on that issue for almost 3 months.
