Hey folks, check this:

I captured some video from Mini DV using Premiere and FireWire.
I loaded that DV into TMPGEnc Plus and tested next settings for PAL

Video CD PAL - CBR 1150 70min/650 MB - thats the default
DVD PAL Low Resolution - CBR 1850 165min/4.7GB
Super VCD PAL-CBR 2520 35min/650MB
DVD PAL - CBR 4000 100min/4,7GB


RESULTS and Questions:

1. DVD Pal Low resolution(1850kbs) is little better than Video CD PAL (1150 kbs) - how to burn this file on DVD using DVD Movie Factory, but to fit at least 120minutes. SInce the DVD PAL low Res. have only diference from VIDEO CD PAL in bit rate. is that DVD or VIDEO CD. I am confused, to burn on DVD as DVD and how, or to burn as VCD?


2. DVD PAL is little more better than DVD PAL Low res. but it looks like there is no difference, for me, I can see a difference, but for other peoples, I dont believe. Question: Is it wiser then to capture an remiere via FireWire and convert with TMPGEnc in DVD PAL Low Res 352x288 or DVD PAL with 720x576 and waste more DVD space.


Does someone tried to bur DVD Low Res on DVD using Movie Factory 2? I cant find the settings. Thanks
