Hi there, im hoping that someone is able to give us a bit of guidance as our IT guy is doing his best to look busy and not helping us. We've burnt a dvd, with a menu, and when it's played on a DVD player, people's movements are all jerky/strobing. We've tried a number of possible solutions ie, changing the quality, burning as an ISO disc image before burning to a DVD-R but nothing seems to have worked, it's still strobing. HELP! Coz our IT guy is a bit of a fool and seems not very willing to give us help. Many Thanks Amy.
Amy, We would need a few more details about your video in question. Origional movie filetype, method of encoding, software used to burn, capture card used to create file etc. I do know for sure that making an ISO instead of a burning the folders or video files as a data/video DVD really doesn't do anything to help you with this problem. Also are you burning a traditional DVD or like many new players will play divx, xvideo, and windows media files. All of which could be burnt to a CD or DVD, and I have seen many files act similar to what your describing. Basically try to encode the video with another program and check to make sure you are using the appropriate frames per second. Here's a link to a free encoder that really works great for me. http://flaskmpeg.sourceforge.net/ O yea if you are trying to copy a vhs to dvd or a dvd without ripping the dvd you will get uneven audio, and video problems its called MACROVISION. good luck, Hack

Gosh, you can tell im a total newbie to all this, and my manager has disappeared for a week and left me completely on my jack with it all.
The clip we're trying to burn was an .avi imported into DVD Workshop, we were just trying to burn through that programme but have also tried Nero which didnt remove the problem.
I feel like im floundering a bit!
We tried a slower burn speed as it was suggested that this might help, however it didnt seem to.
Someone else has suggested that we create a DVD folder may help, so im going to try that in a little while. If not, my manager suggested i try to author the DVD in Premiere Pro and bypass DVD WorkShop altogether.
Ill try the various suggestions and let you know.
Many Thanks
Amy.
I have a very similar problem, strobing video whenever their is significant movement in the video on a finished DVD-R. I captue 15 min of video using Adobe Premier Pro CS3 and rendered the clip as an avi file. Note the following CS3 settings:
Editing mode: DV NTSC
Timebase: 29.97 fps
Frame size: 720h 480v (0.900)
Frame rate: 29.97 frames/second
Pixel Aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC (0.9)
Fields: Lower Field First
Audio Sample rate: 48000 samples/second
DV Capture
Video Rendering
Maximum Bit Depth: Off
Preview File Format: DV NTSC
Compressor: DV NTSC
Color depth: Millions of colors
I imported the avi file into Ulead DVD Workshop 2 and used the following settings:
MPEG files
24 Bits, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps
(DVD-NTSC), 4:3
Video data rate: Variable (Max. 8000 kbps)
LPCM Audio, 48 KHz, Stereo
I also trie other settings such as: Dolby digital audio and a constant video data rate with no success!
Prior to the CS3, I edited with premier 6.5 with no problem authoring with Ulead's workshop. Keep in mind the strobing occurs even when I convert to mpeg2 and burn without any authoring. CAN ANYONE HELP!!!!
