Hi,
I've been getting to grips with my new pc and trawling through a bunch of old DV tapes to make classic family DVD's. So far: so good.
I use Roxio 6 and am wondering if the picture Q varies between different DVD apps. I see pro's and con's mentioned in various threads and observe a fair degree of difference in image quality between my original DV fottage and the final DVD. I have been using lowest compression throughout.
So, why is it that Hollywood movie picture quality is stacks better than my footage on DVD ? Do different apps compress better/worse than others ?
I accept that DV footage needs to be compressed to fit on a disc.
What are you folks using and how well does it fair ?
TIA
