Help -- 1st time in trying to create a DVD like output using the MPEG option.
You suggest that the MPEG formats allow you to create high-quality, low-bandwidth videos in a format that won't take up a lot of disk space on your hard drive. So, I recently rendered a file in MPEG-2 mode -- file size was 1.2 GB. How do I copy/burn this type of file onto a R/W CD for playing in a DVD player since the file size is so big? Normally, if the file size is under 700 MB, do I just copy the file over to a CD and pop into a DVD player? Or do I somehow use the print-to-tape option in the Capture program?
Also, does increasing/decreasing the bitrate of either audio or video dramatically hurt the quality output but lower the file size?
Basically, I want a very high quality ouput on either a DV tape (which I already have) and a DVD/CD for others to enjoy. The quality on a vhs tape is very poor!
