i captured a party using sony handyman dcr-hc20 camcorder . then used windows
movie maker 2 edit the movie, i burnt the video to a dvd using dvd -ram
burner(windvd/nero). when i play the movie in dvd player the video is
fuzzy/not sharp. however when i play the original digital video using the
camcorder on my tv(a/v connection).the video quality
is veryvery good.

1)how can i improve the dvd/video quality?
2)should i reduce my laptop screen resolution before i make the
movie/capture the movie to my laptop?
Note:captured the video using a firewire cable in dv-avi format. made the
movie in ntsc(higher resolution--720x480)/recomended(1 option). my video card
is ati with 128 memory. my laptop screen resolution is 1440x990.
 
Once you've captured the movie via firewire in DV-AVI format, ensure you
save it in DV-AVI format. Then use Nero to burn that DV-AVI file to the
DVD.
 
If U capture via firewire and intended too place on DVD U should encode MPEG2
not avi (or alternatively burn straight too DBD from Video SOftware if
capability there), before a burn to disk as means that during transcoding the
avi gets recompressed to MPEG2..So overall video quality degrades because of
2 stages of encoding..
