G'Day All
I've just upgraded from Ulead VS7 to VS9 and a friend gave me his Sony DVD Mini Camcorder to combine a couple of the 1.4 Gb mini discs to 1 DVD. Just so you understand, these mini discs are already DVD compliant Mpegs so you can play them directly in your set top. I've transferred all the files from the camcorder DVD discs to the HD and I imported a clip just to check the properties so I could match them up with the project settings. I've checked through the guides, but don't see anything obvious that pertains to this particular setup. So this is where I'm just a little confused as to the settings I need. Just wondering if someone could have a peek and give me a some pointers.
Video Clip properties
See "Clip Properties" attatchmentent
I'll leave the text here just in case

Data Rate: Variable Bit Rate(Max 9100kbps)
Audio:
Audio Type: Dolby digital audio 48,000 Hz, 2/0(L/R)

Video Studio 9 Project Options General Tab Settings I've Chosen
See "Project General Tab" Attachment
Data Track: Audio and Video
Frame Rate: 29.97 Frames/Second
Frame Type: Upper Field First
Frame Size: 720x480

Video Studio 9 Project Options Compression Tab Settings

This is the one that stumps me a little as I can't even go that high when picking an Audio bit rate when MPEG Format is chosen. Do I need to "check" the DVD-VR box and then pick "Stereo" or "Dual Channel" as these are the options available when that box is ticked. Havn't done this format before, but would like to match the settings of the project to the clips.
Thanks much for any input,
Cheers,
Max
