Hope someone can help..i have captured 2 files from my DV camcorder,
to my HD using Ulead Movie Factory. I then converted the files to mpeg2, using a CONSTANT bitrate of 6000.

When i use Workshop to make the disc, i either choose the template that is set for 6000, or i choose a CUSTOM template, and make the settings CONSTANT, 6000.

Either way, Workshop attempts to RE-ENCODE the video files.
I cant figure out why this is happening.

I've also tried to use a HIGHER bitrate setting or template,
and still it tries to re-encode the files. You would assume the
program would not try to UPCONVERT a file, but it does.

Finally, i gave up, and decided to let it re-encode the files, but twice
it came back with errors, saying that 'conversion failed', and this is
after spending 6+ hours doing it.

Anyone have any suggestions?

thanks

Winston
