Bit Rate for DVD

I have recorded some video onto my computer using a TV Card (Hauppauge WinTV PVR-250). It's in MPEG 2 format, with a bit rate of 6400 kbps (CBR).

I am trying to use Ulead VideoStudio 8 to create a DVD containing four such videos, each of which is one hour long. I have therefore set a custom setting with a bit rate of 2250 kbps (CBR) and MPEG sound 192 kbps in the creation settings of VideoStudio to make the files small enough that four hours of film will fit on one disk.

However, the completed project is unacceptable because it suffers from severe pixelation, especially on fast moving pan/action sequences.

I can't understand why this is because I have tested this bit rate is of sufficient quality by capturing some video from my TV card using the same bit rate values and this is not distorted in any way.

Can anyone advise me why the conversion is creating pixelation and if there is anything I can do to avoid it? It's very frustrating!

Thanks

Gary
