Which codec for Pinnacle Studio to create DVD ?

[donpedro]

Hi All,

I am using Pinnacle Studio 7 to edit my video. I would like to creta files that are DVD ready. I was reading somewhere that MPEG2 codec from Pinnacle is not good and that I should create AVI file and then convert it into MPEG2 file. Now quiestion that I have is :

Which codec should I use to create AVI file (which one is best) and which codec to use to create MPEG2 file ?

Thanks,
Peter

It is stated in the manual for best results use DV full quality to create avi
files , I use the same program to create avi's , then I encode them with
TMPGEnc dvd ntsc. then I burn with nero ,,, the finished product is pretty dam_ outstanding , but you be the judge of that .

my mistake , it says to use dv video encoder to create avi's

Sorry for the mistake,,,

DOes anybody know what would be the best setup for TMPGEnc. Or is there any other very goog codec that can be used directly in Studio 7 ?
