I have been trying to use MyDVD 8 Premium (for .tivo files), but it seems on the authored dvd, the video ever 60 seconds or so, starts to go slow and then speed back up again. I tried closing every background program I have running, but it doesn't seem to help. Does anyones else have this problem?

Probably not enough disk space. If you are getting into video editing, I recommend lots of hard drive space. There are some great back-to-school sales right now. Circuit City has a Western Digital 250gig HD for only $49.99 after rebates. IDE with 8MB cache

I have also had some problems with the program freezing and usually it was the VideoWave program....I haven't had problems with other DVD burning software (but those don't do .Tivo files...) might it be something else?

It might, but two people have suggested hard drive space -- so what's the problem? If you do not want to open your computer to put in another hard drive, buy the new hard drive and get an external USB enclosure for it. The put some of these files on the external device to clear up some space. Also make sure you do frequent clean ups and defrag on your hard drive.
Please don't play the "yes-- but" game.

I found out it has nothing to do with the hard drive space. When I changed the application settings to render using the hardware instead of the software, then it didn't do the 'speed up then slow down' thing. however, it still doesn't look very good. It seems that it looks interlaced (although I set it for progressive), but it almost looks interlaced 'vertically'. Strange, i know....has anyone else had any problems with the picture quality of .tivo files?
