OK,
First of all excuse my newbie question. I have a friend who I've taught to capture YouTube videos. There are very rare music clips from such venues as the old Dick Clark Beechnut Show. I know that due to the size of the YouTube stuff, it is impossible to improve the quality for a DVD transfer.
My BIG question, if you can't improve the quality, is there any way when burning to DVD format, to make the final product smaller so that it does not fill the screen and show up all the pixilation you get from low res YouTube captures???
I'm really scratching my head over this and would greatly appreciate any helpful guidance.

You could add a frame around the video.
This video was a .flv 320x240.
Dragged into AviDemux and the left side menu set as shown.
Use the 'Filters' button under 'Video' and expand the source to 720x480 (for NTSC).
On the main screen select 'Output' to view the result.
Save the file - remember to include the complete name eg newfile.mpg
The output file should be DVD compliant - an authoring program like DVD Flick (if the options are set properly) should simply author the DVD files without further encoding.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll give it a try. The key will be if the video that shows up on the TV via DVD is small enough to not be pix city.

I downloaded and installed Avidemux 2.5.1
It looks like it will do the trick. The only problem is that when I set up outputs and filtering according to the screen captures and instructions. I get an error messaage when setting ti up for MPEG-PS (A+V) that says:
Incompatible audio
For DVD, audio must be 48 kHz MP2, AC3 or LPCM.
If I set it for MPEG Video, it does the job successfully, but the audio is missing. I'm trying various options in case I missed something.

Thanks again brother. Too bad they haven't figured out a way to digitally enhance those low res Youtubes to make'em look a little better when filling a screen.
