I use the Premiere to import movie from my sony handycam and it's saved in .avi format. I then edit and export the movie dirtect to DVD.
The DVD plays fine both in computer and DVD player. I notice that the DVD playback is fuzzy compared with the original avi file. I even try to increase the bitrate to maximum and it still doesn't help.

Is it becuase the built-in encoder (I think it's mainconcept) sucks or I didn't optimize the settings? Should I use another encoder to have a better result?
