Hi, I have been usign Macs but recently bought a secondhand Dell
(Optiflex GX260) for various reasons, but mainly so my children could
play a few PC games they had acquired. Because XP comes with Movie
Maker, I hitched up my camcorder (Sony TRV460) and downloaded a minute
or two of footage. And the quality once it is acquired by my PC is
TERRIBLE. Now why should that be? Would it have something to do with
the graphics card which came with the Dell? When I have previously
edited video on a Mac, the quality of ther footage is almost as good as
that when played on the camcorder. So why is Windows footage so much
worse?To see just how bad the quality is, take a lookl at
where I have uploaded it to
Youtube. Please someone tell me. Patrick.
 
What quality settings did youi use to save the video?
Also did you use USB or Firewire?
