color quality after render

I just did a DVD for my brother of him on the racetrack. I did a basic edit of it and put it in architect. Everything looked good so I burned it to disc and when I watched it on mh TV the color had a greenish yellowish tint to it. When I watched it in preview through architect before I burned it, the video was good, color and all. Does anyone know why the color would be off like that. I have burned several videos now with this program and haven't had an issue before.

The color of the DVD output should be almost identical to that of the original footage.

It's possible the original footage was digitized in a way that it didn't optimize the color quality. Video from a still camera, for instance, can be very problematic. So can video captured over All-In-Wonder or other non-standard capture cards.

What type of camcorder is the original footage from and how did you get it into your computer?

Let me take a wild guess here; did you by chance capture it as wmv using Windows Movie Maker?

It is from a camera that is used to attach to an RC airplane when it is flying. It is called flycamone. http://www.hobby-lobby.com/video-camera.htm. A lot of guys use it to attach to there motorcycles becuause it is small and light. He has a friend who uses it and gets great videos from it. So I don't think it is the camera that is an issue. You plug the camera by USB to upload the vids on the camera and they are uploaded as an AVI file. I imported them into sony vegas 8 and I rendered as AVI. Like I said when I preview it in dvd architect the color still looks good it was after I rendered it to the dvd.
