For a DVD to play on a computer, you need a third party software package, such as Ulead DVD Player or PowerDVD. Windows does not have a default player.

Assuming your video input color and resolution is OK, you probably need to increase the bitrate in your capture settings. I prefer a high (8000) bitrate and "constant" not "variable".

These settings can be changed under Project Settings. If you have MF3 or 3.5, click on the gear on the lower left of your caputure screen. Go to Change MPEG settings. You can click on Custom settings if you want a constant bitrate. Hope this helps.
