Best way to render/properties

Cincyfilmgeek wrote on 9/8/2007, 5:50 PM

When I render my video at best and play it back on a dvd player it seems that the edges of the people, etc. have smal digital artifacts and are not smooth at all. It seems the motion of people is blury and not smooth. What could be causing this? What are the best settings for properties, obiosuly best for full resolution but what about motion blur type, deinterlace method?
What is the best way to render, mpeg...I need this to look the best as possible as this is going to be shown on a big theater screen.

Thanks,
David

I'll let those more experienced in MPEG respond. But as an FYI:

--- I had a similar problem rendering 640x480 .WMV files -- for test render views and occasional sharing online or by email . Bumping up bitrate to 1000K/1 Mb. really cleared up things. I had jerky motion, artifacts and so on prior to that.

I use this as a default for these files now all the time. Bumping up higher doesn't seem to be of benefit for my uses.

There is probably a similar solution with MPEG.

(I'm in the middle of rendering something right now, so can't give you other properties details since Vegas is busy :)

The 480p DVD resolution you need is 848x480 (that's the native widescreen DV resolution too). Just make sure you de-interlace, that's why you get these "jaggies".
