When producing movie quility gets bad-using powerdirector

[Pieter]

help.
IWhen i capture from h/cam via firewire and then go straight to burn a dvd disk all seems Ok!

Problem comes in when creating a project and then producing the movie, the quility suddenly gets bad, the edges of footage is broken, almost like having stripes through it. This is worst when footage is moving fast!

I produce it in PAL High quility.

COuld my computer Ram have anything to do with this I have 520 Ram and I seem to use 83% while burning disk etc.

If I use a stand alone decoder it does not help much as I can then not add all the nice stuff to the movie, like titles music etc.
Please help!
thank you

That is not possible. Something along the line is converting your DV avi to DVD compliant mpeg-2, then creating VOBS tec. What tool are you using?

That sounds like a field order issue. What are you useing to edit, how do you then create a DVD from it. DV-Avi is bottom field first, the editor and encoding software needs to know this

I produce it in PAL High quility.

I guess this is a setting in some piece of SW you are useing?
