Which Is Highest Quality Windows Media Choice?

[JeffinATL]

I've burned a DVD of a home movie and it looks great. I've used the output feature to burn a few files to play on a PC but the image is a bit fuzzy. What is the best quality output I can get that will play on a PC? Also, if I later want to put the file up on a website for people to view, what is the best quality to use among those MyDVD gives me?

MyDVD produces a DVD Movie. Setting it to HQ will assure the highest quality, however…

 

You cannot up-render quality. If your source was lower than you output it will look horrible!

 

Without you supplying a lot more detail there is no simple answer.

Let me rephrase the question...if I have a movie I've edited on MyDVD 10 and want to "output" it to one of the 39 Video Quality File settings available, which one would I choose to put it up on a website and have the highest quality picture for the viewer to see? The ones I've saved as Windows Media files aren't as high of a quality as I would like. Thanks in advance for the help!

Your web site or one of the sharing sites?

 

If yours, for quality and ease of upload/download, use Flash (flv). You can use someting like "Any Video Converter" (free).

 

It will also help getting videos to upload to YouTube. The price is right.

 

There are other options to use/buy . For the casual user, this is usually good enough.
