HI

I have just purchased this and have output part of my video onto disc however when I watch it on TV the quality is not to good, any ideas on how I can improove this (I have burned at 2x)

Also how do I set chapters and show them on my main menu?

Thanks for any help

What was the quality setting you used?  I always use Best quality, burn to an image file then, if needed, let Video Copy and Convert shrink to fit the disc at best possible quality.

And also, what is the source of the video? Maybe it was already in not so good quality when you used it to burn onto disc.

How long is the video?  At best quality, you can get one hour on a single 4.7GB blank DVD.

How did you transfer the video from your camcorder to the computer and what settings did you choose?
