Hi there,
I'm trying to create some DVD's of my Samplitude tutorials with the view of releasing them. But so far I've been very disappointed with the quality. This isn't a criticism of Vegas Pro I hope you realise. I've experimented with quite a few different authoring software's and the quality is always poor. Maybe there's a secret. I don't know about. All my tutorials were created created using Camtasia Recorder, which uses the TSSC AVI codec. I'm using a resolution of 1920x1080x24 @25 fps. Vegas Pro recognises it as Upper Field First although I'll be honest I don't really know what that means. I have some earlier ones which are 1280x1024 as well which will go on a separate DVD. Maybe it's just because the lower resolution of DVDs is not up to giving good definition. Although I recently bought the King's Speech on DVD and the quality of that seemed pretty good. I've experimented pre-rendering on the timeline using the DVD Architect Pal widescreen setting but it keeps defaulting to Lower Field First. It looks terrible - out of focus with smeared colours. I must have gone through a dozen DVDs good-quality Tao Yuden ones and they all look terrible. Maybe I'm expecting too much. Ideally I'd prefer to put them on Blu-ray but I did a survey and very few users - 3% had Blu-ray players. If anyone could enlighten me with how to make high-quality DVDs I will be forever grateful.
Thanks in anticipation
