I currently use dvd shrink , nero, dvd decrypter and have played around with similar programs but cannot find a program or "how to" on improving the quality of my actual video (brightness) or improving audio sound ( (level). I'm asking b/c I use a Sony Cybershot 7.2 mega pixel camera that records mpeg videos w/ sound. I know I know..you're probably saying just upgrade to something that will produce better quality but money is an issue and this is what I have to work with...so any recommendations???
