Hi all
I;m a novice in the field of dvd encoding etc<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p>
I’ve a problem in converting a video file captured to dvd
I've captured trip video frm Sony Handycam using fire wire
in high quality wmv format using windows movie maker
and i edited it using the same
did some editing like trimming, adding text, adding effects, added some music, etc
and i saved the project using save as movie option in wmv itself, almost 1 hr movie
the end file is 3gb file!!!!!!!!
then i burned it to a DVD+RW, using Nero 6 in dvd format
and when i played in the player, the clarity what i'm getting is not of dvd quality
the clarity which i get when played frm handycam directly is better than this one

My questions are :
what cud be the reason of such a big file?? is it problem of capturing or due to editing??
if editing, i've another dvd which have almost 2 hr function with musci etc edited by a professional
in my case 2 hr movie wont fit into a 4.7 gb dvd
is it problem in writing dvd??
how i can imporve the clarity of movie???
which progrm is best for doing editing like adding music, adding effects etc???


hope i will get an answer

Ulead Video Studio or Cyberlink Power Director or Womble MPEG Video Wizard.Capture as DV AVI using WinDV.Ur captured file will be about 12GB per hour.So,dedicate a separate drive or partition(at least 20GB)for video.When u finally produce the DVD,select the target size in ur editor.Even if it goes beyond the 4.7GB mark u can always use DVD Shrink to bring down the size.
