I've only just noticed that when I play DVDs after I've burnt them onto disc, the picture is quite jerky, but it's only slightly noticeable. I thought it could be Nero that was causing the problem, so I uninstalled it and installed WinAVI instead. However, that didn't solve the problem - now they won't even play at all when burnt with WinAVI! :(

I thought it could possibly be the cheap Woolworths discs I'm using, but I suppose a disc is a disc at the end of the day? :huh:

It could be my DVD writer, but when I use it to burn music via Windows Media Player I have no problem at all...

Hi

Good quality media is worth it's price. I use Taiyo Yudens (or Verbatims). These are the only media you should use. Woolworths is most likely crappy media and causing your probs.

The result may be jerky if there was a frame rate conversion
during the encode. For example, NTSC > PAL.

Absolutely wrong on this one. There's no way we can stress enough the importance of good blank media to succeed in making quality backups. It's an essential part of a quality burn. As stated, stick with Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim.

disc = 95% of process

its easy chucking a file in say convertxtodvd and drink some coffee/watch tv for an hour.

Nothing here to see, move along folks.

To answer your first question:

I don't think so. From around half way onwards, it seems to lose this slight jerk.

To answer your second:

I'm not sure what you mean (I'm quite a newbie)?

load your avi in virtualdubmod and move slider to a movement scene and advance a frame a time useing the button see if you see ghosting or double images over each other etc

is you see single good snaps like photos its ok.

Nothing here to see, move along folks.

After following everyone's advice, I used a different brand of disc and the problem was solved.

Thanks once again for your help!
