Is there a way to improve the quality of downloaded movies?

[JimmieG]

I download movie clips MPEG's etc. using LimeWire but every
time I burn them to a DVD the movie clips are never DVD
quality is there a way to improve the quality of the movie clips so that they are DVD quality? My computer does not have a video card could that be the reason? Does Nero Recode help improve the video quality of movie clips before before you burn them to DVD? If so what are the steps.

if the original are good to begin with , perhaps it's the encoding process that you're using.

"Does Nero Recode help improve the video quality of movie clips before before you burn them to DVD?"

NERO Recode is a product for compressing (already decrypted) FULL DVDs.

To better help determine the source of your quality proble, BUY a commercial DVD - then decrypt and compress it - and see how IT plays back on your PC and/or standalone DVD player...

Use an original purchased dvd and you will get dvd quality

What I meant to say was that I download movies from a file sharing site (LimeWire). Most of the movies look great while watching them on Windows Media Player but once I burn them to a DVD they are blurry not as colorful or as vivid in other words they are not DVD quality they're not even VHS quality.
