SVCD capture, cap to SVD in one shot ?

[logopro]

If one wants an SVCD movie, and is recording from the TV for example,

which would render a better quality movie.....

a dvd quality dvd movie that is then reduced to SVCD ?

or recording directly to SVCD, then burning to a CDR ?

I'm not sure on this, and wondering about it....

thanks in advance

This depends on the settings used in the compression of course but in general a DVD picture should be better than a TV broadcast. The proof is in the pudding.
