pixel blurring problem during motion or panning

[mrgain]

I have some mpeg2 video on dvd that blurs whenever there is any movement on playback.Not sure if this could be the reason but its encoded at exactly 9800 kb/s.... yeah i left it at the max.My audio on the dvd is 192kb and when i authored,menus and such added up to less then 70 mb.The thing is the same mpeg2 file on my hard drive doesnt do it when i play it back in the viewer of my editor on my computer,i dont know if that helps.any ideas?

It could be a interlace problem or a bad converter. But please give us MORE information.

What is the source video details?
What tool are you converting to dvd with?

And what did you author with? If the source MPEG-2 is fine, but it has this problem after authoring, then could the authoring program be reencoding it? Can you upload a small 10 second piece of the finished DVD. If you don't know how to cut a piece, one way is to open a VOB in DGIndex, use the [ and ] buttons to isolate a small section that displays the problem, then File->Save Project and Demux Video, and upload the resulting M2V somewhere. Like I said, a small piece.

Is the field order OK? It should be bottom field first.

I used a hauppauge 150 to capture at 13,500 then re-encoded down to 9800 with womble mpeg video wizard dvd after editing.Then authored and burned with ulead dvd movie factory 5.0 to a dual layer disk.I also wonder if the problem could have been caused because i didnt tell ulead to create an iso first.It also give me a warning that there may not be enough space on the disk.Then asked go ahead anyway?But the size was only like 7.39 gb on the left or begining of the green bar but this was intresting,it also said (7.94) right next to that also at the begining.Then over to the right at the end of the green bar it said (7.92) and (8.50) as you would expect.Manono above asked could it be re-encoding it,well I had the box checked that says do not convert mpeg compliant video,so I dont know there and it was set to ntsc like my euipment that it eventually gets played on.I have used the same capture card to capture at 12,000 kb/s not long ago and it worked fine.On a side not i also noticed my audio is out of sync....problems ..problems.

[mrgain]

I forgot to mention this mpeg2 file contains 2 files that were joined together,maybe that caused me problems?If it is a field order problem then if i fix the field order will it sync my audio back to normal at the same time if I use re-stream?

If its a TV/Cable signal it should be TopFieldFirst.
If from a Camcorder it should be BottomFieldFirst.
Check each step with Gspot.
I remember older ver. of TDA assumed it was DV, not sure what Wiz does.
Other posters are right , sounds like Field order.

Question why you don't cap at lower bit rate. Extra step can't help.

I would--
Capture at required bit rate,edit,author to DVD folder (Video_TS).
Then check and burn.

Not sure on audio, maybe leave a little slack on disk.

Good Luck, Hunter99

I capture at the higher bitrate initially because i find that when your working with bone knives and bear skins,hi8 camcorder video,it preserves much more of the original quality even after you re-encode down to a dvd compatible bitrate.yeah i'm wondering if i should have left a little slack and went with like 9700.Im gonna check the field order thx guys for advice on that.

yep "scdvd" was correct field order was wrong it was front first.....thanks for the help.
