I have a Panasonic Mini DV camcorder, model: PV-GS29 and I use the firewire connection to transfer the movies I recorded to my Toshiba laptop, model: Satellite A105-S4034, brand new laptop, I'm using Sony DVD-R media, and I'm using the software that came with the laptop to do the transferring, Intervideo WinDVD creator.
I spent a lot of time reading to find out the problem and no one really addresses this completely.
I have vacation videos on my DV tape that I want to transfer to DVD, I have a firewire output on my DV camcorder, and a firewire input on my laptop, all goes well when I hook it up, I choose quality settings, I picked the best to just experiment, the software will detect the camera, rewind the tape and then capture the video, then I burn it to DVD, no errors or troubles, all goes well.
But now when I go to watch the DVD in my other players the video is jittery, it looks more digital then smooth like my analog VHS recordings, it's not really missing frames I believe, just has that jumpy look to it when the part of the movie is active, meaning where you are scanning a scene real fast or someone is running thru the scene, it's not smooth, it jitters, best way I can describe it.
Now if I watch the DV tape thru the camcorder it is perfect, no jitters, when I hook the DV camcorder directly up to my TV thru the AV ports I get a normal picture, no jitters, it's smooth.
Do I have to drop the recording quality when burning a DV transfer to a DVD so as not to get the digital jitter?
Or is the software I'm using lame If you need more information I will post what you need, I'm a newbie, but I have read a lot, only thing I can find that comes close is that frames are being dropped? And when I get done buring the 1 hour DV tape to DVD the DVD is almost full, so I'm recording at the highest quality.
Thanks for your time
