I created a movie on my PC with movie Maker in XP (windows media audio/video file) I burned to a -R disk using InterVideo Launcher in NTSC format. All seemed well until I try to play back in my DVD player. the picture "pixelates" every 10-15 seconds or so. Any help would be appreciated. The disk plays fine on the PC. Thanks in advance!
I think you might have the bitrate set up to high, I've never used InterVideo Launcher so I don't know if it gives you the option to change or not.
Hmm, no bit rate selection, but it does offer "high Quality", "good quality" and so on down the line. I burned at HQ, will try "Good quality" and see what happens. Thanks
I dont think it would be a bitrate problem. I dont know much about intervideo but if you are having intervideo encode a .wmv file from windows movie maker that might be the problem. I would try a different encoder and author, then just use intervideo for the burning. I would use tmpeg xpress, divxtodvd, cce, or nero recode. Also make sure you are burning at no more than 4x.
Man, i'm such a noob! so the movie I made in movie maker is not a .wmv file? If I understand you correctly I need to encode the file to a .wmv first? I just d/loaded nero, I'll give that a try. Thanks! Gary
No the movie that you made with windows movie maker was a .wmv file. You need to encode that to a mpg2 and then author.
