hi.i have captured some satellite tv using virtualvcr and using a winfast vc100.i captured at the highest reso.the outputed avi was excellent.i used virtual dub for the wav,then used tmpgenc later to encode to mpeg2 dvd pal.settings was---constant bitrate(6800k/s).,interlaced,bottom field first(field b),audio 192k/s 48000.. these were the settings then i used dvd author later. the problem i have is when after burning in nero on riteks the dvd appears shakey/bluury in the moving scenes.its as if the dvd player is struggling to playit.i tried in 2 standalone players and its the same.if i use my own dvd rom and run through power dvd the disc plays fine.any help with this please? thanks ian

Are you certain that the source is BFF? I thought BFF was reserved primariliy by DV codecs. If the source is TFF and you encode with BFF, it will certainly cause "strange" behaviour in motion scenes.

i think you are spot on and expected this reply.i did a bit more research after this post and realised that i should have selected top field first.i re encoded part the film and now appears fine.might experiment now with an alternative capture program for direct mpeg.a captured avi took 45 gig at 80 min using huffyuv codec.thanks for reply. ian
