dvd quality not good

I bought a mini dv Sony camcorder . I want to transfer the tapes on to dvd's. I captured the video on to Vegas through the dv cable. The quality looks clear on the camcorder screen and on the PC when capturing, but when I make a dvd the quality is distorted. Help please, thanks

What settings are you using when you render out? If you are using the default settings, you are pretty much guaranteed not-so-great results. Also, are you using DVDA?

I am kind of lost here. After I captured the video in Vegas I click on Make Movie, send to dvd architect studio, make movie and burn dvd. Is there something I am missing ? Thanks

Are you using Vegas 6 or Vegas Movie Studio?

Vegas Movie Studio 6.0 and DVD Architect Studio 3.0

OK....I was thinking Vegas 5/6 when I posted earlier.......Sorry for the confusion. I really can't help much as I don't have that particular program. I'm not sure how similar it is to Vegas 5/6 when it comes to rendering etc.

This particular section of the forum is the Vegas 5/6 (and 4) section. I'm sure someone on here will be familiar with the studio program but you might get a quicker response from the Studio forum. These forums can be a bit confusing with Vegas in both titles of the software.

Hope that helps......
