AVI to MPEG VCD Problems HELP!!!!!

[StormStrickland]

ok i am able to convert avi to mpeg 1 for a vcd but when it plays out on my computer or dvd player it gets fuzzy. how can get this fixed and a clearer picture. i use TMPGE and Unlead DVD Movie Factory. Is there a better way to do it that will make my quality better?

you could up your resolution and bitrate then make a SVCD or XSVCD

[StormStrickland]

how would i up my resolution???? it is at 352x240 now

Have a look at FX WRITER at www.jhepple.com It's free and although it takes a long time, the result is very good and I have not had sound sync problems like I get with TMPG. It is also very simple to use.

Is the original AVI file good quality

great quality

[Craig Tucker]

So is the encoded mpeg poor quality when played on your pc (before burned to VCD). Are you using a standard VCD template.

i guess it is standard how would i change it in my program and it is poor quality when full screen and it looked the same on tv when burned

[tweedledee]

At what stage does it go from "great quality" to "poor Quality" ?

[StormStrickland]

everytime i covert it from avi to mpeg 1

Sure, check out my e-mail address from my profile, then send me an e-mail so I can reply to it. BTW this info is in these guides, I'm only passing on stuff that I have found here. Are you downloading movies from the net or from your own camera?
