Which still wouldn't actually save an MPEG video would it? Wouldn't it
actually create a WMV or AVI and import to Sonic and then create the VOB
files and the DVD?
You still wouldn't actually "save[d] the file in MPEG format" I don't
think.

Yes MPEG is a higher compression/lower quality format but MPEG2 is
also the format read by DVD players only it is converted to VOB files.
But you couldn't have saved your video as am MPEG using Movie Maker
since Movie Maker will only save as a DV-AVI or a WMV file there is no
option for saving as an MPEG.

I was able to create a DVD when I saved the file in MPEG format...set
at the
highest resolution. The quality seems good...but I am assuming that
it would
be better if I could save with the AVI....or does it not matter? The
DVD I
created was approximately 3 minutes in length. A few skips (hiccups)
with
the audio portion...but the video portion worked.
Am I correct in assuming the the MPEG format quality is lower than
the AVI?
Thanks,
Chris

You shouldn't have any performance issues with that system.
It sounds like you did everything right which would tend to point
towards
either a problem with the camera or with the firewire cable (not the
port
obviously since you have tried 2 different computers) but have a
look at
this site in case you missed anything it details exactly how to
optimize
your computer to capture a good video.

Well it sounds like you took the right steps so far but let me
ask, what
are
your computer specs?
I am trying to create training DVD's for use in my classroom,
but have
so
far
been unsuccessful.
When I capture video from my DV in AVI format, the resolution
is high,
but
the content is choppy. I have turned off the preview
pane....closed
programs
so that only my capture program is running....defragged my hard
drive....used
two different machines with the same result. I have also spent
$93 on
Easy
Media Creator 8 today....and still the same results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
