I have been working on a 45 minute video for about 2 months. I had everything finished and authored a test dvd-rw. It looked perfect on my Playstation 2 (it plays RW, while my standalone does not.) I lost my mind for a minute and deleted the original avi to clear up space on my hard drive.
I burned a new copy on a DVR-R so I could use it on my standalone and to make copies for my friends. AHH!!! The bitrate was too high. My dvd player says it's hovering around the 9 mbps mark, and this is making the image all "jittery".
Is there any way I can lower the bitrate of my dvd without ruining the quality too much?
I'm already using an Ac3 audio track, so I don't think compressing that will make much of a difference.
Any ideas? Maybe DVD Shrink?
Thanks |

i tried lowering the bitrate, and it didn't help. i used a program called bitrate viewer, which told me the program is progressive. the capture was interlaced, so i must have messed up the field order.
is there any way to take an m2v file and send it back through tmpenc and change the field order? I remember I used lower, but maybe it should've been upper field first? |

I used Virtual Dub mod. Isent the m2v file through there to convert it back to an avi. I then re-converted the file in Tmpgenc, using "Top FIeld First". Everything looks great now. |
