    hello guys ,sorry if this has been asked before.

    THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS,

    when i convert an AVI file to dvd using dvd convertX then burn using their burner,
    on playback i get a motion problem.

    on the camera panning slowly,i get a stuttering like a judder on the picture.when its at the AVI playback stage on the pc theres no stutter,its clearly when it gets to dvd this happens?
    i read somewhere about frames per second like pal 24 frames per second and ntsc 30,etc

    can anyone help me on this problem ???

    is there something im doing wrong ?is there a program solution you can get?
    im so close having good quality dvd burns,its driving me mad.

    im using sony dvd-R,4.7GB 16xcompatible discs i burn at slow rates.

    please please guys can you help me.

    great site
    thanks very much

    What is the source avi frame rate? Identify it using gspot or mediainfo (You can post a screenshot from gspot or mediainfo).

    Are you converting to NTSC in ConvertXtoDVD?

    The framerate you posted above is PAL, which should be fine since your TV system is PAL. The only way that it may be causing a problem, is if ConvertX2DVD is converting it to NTSC. If your output DVD's are PAL, then it is working correctly. Aside from that, it is likely just a poor quality avi file. Are you testing the files on the computer is full screen? Many video quality issues become more apparent when playing back on TV. The bigger the TV, the more noticable any quality issues become.

    If you do this often, you may want to consider getting a DVD player with Divx support. Then you can simply burn your files straight to CD/DVD as data and play them back. It will save conversion time, use less media, and preserve video quality.

    Sounds like a field order problem to me. If so it's fixable with restream. But then you would have to reauthor a new dvd manually. If you don't want to go that route then I would suggest downloading FAVC and using that (with HCenc for the encoder) to convert your avi and author to a new dvd.

    THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FREEBIRD AND KRISPY KRITTER.

    Krispy your spot on i have a divx sony dvd rec and ive tried it using that media and its perfect.however my problem still there, as i need to be able to transport media to other rooms in the house ,that have their dvd players.
    your right krispy it works on my pal tv and player so i guess convertX is at least converting to right country.

    i feel im so close to perfection its frustrating and me being a complete novice too.

    Freebird thanks a million
    you say it can be sorted? using the FAVC ,with HCenc for the encoder?????

    Yes it is free. Just download favc and it will include hcenc in it's installation. If you click the word favc on this page you will get a download page and about halfway down links for guides. Only requirements are avisynth (also free) and microsoft.net (once again free).

    No problem. All I ask is that when you have successfully conquered your problem that you stick around. Don't disappear until you have a new problem. Read some posts every day and someday you will be able to help someone else by answering their post.

    By the way. Welcome to the forums.
