question/problem converting to dvd

[kassidy62.livejournal.com]

I captured from a Starsky & Hutch season 4 dvd, which is from Germany (PAL), made a vid, output in mpeg and had lots of stutters and baaad footage when I converted to DVD. I was using Ulead Media so I switched my field dominance to B (which I'm told, by the way, that Ulead has it backwards - that A is B, and B is A, but anyway), assuming this was the problem, and put out another MPEG file. It seems to have solved all my problems except for two places where I slowed the captured footage down. There the songvid still shows stuttering and essentially ruins it when I convert to dvd. Anyone have any idea how I can overcome this?
Thanks

Not familiar with Ulead, but is there a setting when you adjust the speed of your clips for "frame blending"? If it's on, try turning it off. If it's off, try turning it on. Just a stab in the dark, here, but thought I'd try.

Well I found out what to do about it through trial and error. I looked in help for frame blending and though that didn't come up, it DID get me on the trail:) You can set the source media options to reduce flicker, and that did it. Phew. Thanks so much for talking with me about it:)
