Artifacts on DVD player but perfect on DVD-ROM

[jfebus]

Hi All,

I am having a little problem...

I just captured a VHS using my Vitec DCM to MPEg VBR average bitrate of 5500.

When I look at the mpg file using PowerDVD it looks perfectly.
When I look at the video_ts directory using PowerDVD it looks perfectly.
When I look at the burned DVD (with Nero) with PowerDVD it looks perfectly.
But when I look at the burned (with Nero) DVD it has Artifacts in some parts.

My DVD plays ripped dvd (dvd2one) perfectly..

Any guess?

Regards,

Hi All,

This is an update.

I copied the original video_ts to another disc (Neso) and still have the problem.

I copied the original video_ts to another disc (Ulead DVD WS) and still have the problem.

I recapture the vhs at 4000 cbr and still have the problem.

Could it be the GOP I am using?

Hi All,

I was playing around with the GOP size and noticed that when I reduce the GOP size I get less artifacts (mpeg garbage)... I noticed that I get good quality using a GOP size of 4.

Is this ok? Is there any problem for using a GOP so small?
