I have been trying to render AVI into MPEG 2. I am trying to put a 8 minute segment onto a cDVD using DVDit! I have been successful rendering some short 6-8 minute clips but I started to experiment with the rendering settings to see if I could decrease the file size, but yet keep most of the video quality. About two days agao, I rendered an AVI clip and the video portion was mistimed with the audio. The voices on the audio were spoken before they were spoken on the video.
In addition, about when the mistiming started to happen, the rendered video started playing very choppy on the preview monitor. I changed the setting on the preview monitor all the way down to the "draft" setting, but, to no avail. I then thought I probably used an inadequate mpeg rendering setting. So I went back and used the DVD NTSC-Better template setting (which is what I had used before with great success) and to no avail.
My mpeg video is still choppy and so choppy, I cannot tell if it is timed or not with the audio.
I've run out of ideas and I am wondering if someone out there has an idea(s) for me to try.
I have a PIII, 1.0gb, 384mb ram, 32 mb video card, w98se, 40gb 7200rpm hd-DMA enabled.
Thanks!
