Being new to digital video, I used the version of MyDVD LE that came with my
new Dell to capture the contents of one of my miniDV tapes and burned a
DVD-R out of it with very simple authoring (menus & chapters) at the
software's best quality setting.
While happy it played on my old Panasonic DVD player, I was disappointed
that the quality was no where near what the DV tapes delivered (in terms of
resolution & the images appearing jumpy when panned from side to side).
What can be done to maximize the quality of home-burned DVDs to deliver the
same or similar performance to DV? Is there software I should buy / upgrade
to or a process I should follow to maximize this?
Again, my goal is to recreate the contents of my DV tapes on DVD while
achieving as much of the original quality as possible. My computer is a
Dell 3.4 Ghz with 1 GB RAM , a 250 MB SATA HD, Radeon X300 video card, 16X
double-layer DVD recorder, and Windows XP Pro.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
