Hi all, Iam using a firewire capture card to transfer footage form my dv camcorder to my computer. They are captured smoothly as .AVI and I can play them fine - even though they are v.big!! However when I convert AVI to MPG (1,2 or 4 )during the conversion I get horizontal lines on my footage, they are most noticeable when the subject is moving fast. I have loaded all codecs but does not make any difference. I have a 1.4 Athlon when 0.5 GB of memory / win98. Please can anyone Help!??? Thanks
