VS X4 - dif btw hdv for pc and hdv for tv?

Post by arcuspilot »

Does anybody know what the difference is between exporting as HDV for PC as opposed to HDV for TV?
I play my rendered movies through my Western Digital TV Live - essentially a PC with attached hard drive - and, via HDMI to my 42" LCD TV.

When I tried exporting as Hi Def MPEG4, I found the playback to be very stuttery. However exporting to HDV seems fine. But which setting to use? For PC or TV?
Any ideas? I could find nothing in the manual.

Thanks for your time

I honestly don't think there is the slightest difference between the two -- the properties for each are identical. So I have no idea why Corel made the distinction. But just in case, I use HDV for TV since that is where I display all of my HDV -- via a PlayStation 3 connected to my home network via the PS3 server.

Thanks, Ken - I'll export for TV too from now on. Seems we pretty much have identical media viewing setups.
