Nero Vision - Burning 720p mp4 to DVD - loss of quality.

Ok,

So i purchased Nero 8 and an HD video camera (Sanyo Xacti HD700).

The video camera outputs .mp4 video files at 720p.

When I take the files off of the camera and drag them into Nero Vision, it converts them and adds them to the project. The settings are for "Automatic-Fit to Disc", im using a dual layer dvd for a 100MB .mp4 file so that has to be enough room.

It creates the disc fine.

I also have a ps3, and that plays the raw .mp4 files.

When comparing the DVD created from Nero to the raw files played on the Ps3, the PS3 looks like pure HD while the other doesnt.

Both the Ps3 and DVD player are going into my TV via HDMI, same type of cable.

Is there a better way of converting these .mp4 so I can burn them to DVD?

Thanks!

Scott

Instead of "Automatic-fit to disc" setting, use "High Quality".

It's the same thing.

I tried both--when the disc is so big and the video file is that tiny, Fit-To-Disc at the end is "High Quality".

okay, but was it Fast Encoding-1 pass, or High-Quality(2-pass VBR)?

Good question - I'll have to check that - wasn't aware it was an option.

Think that could be the difference?

Well, I always use 2-pass encoding with DVD Flick(I would like to use Nero Vision, but it is a pain to add subtitles with Vision, and they would be embedded). It is slower, but it makes a difference.

not sure--I mean, it would be playing on a ps3 which is 1080p.

Can it hurt to turn it up as high as possible?

Well, I played with the settings and I don't know if it will allow higher that 8000kbit/s for a regular DVD. If it will be played on a PS3, make a AVCHD instead,which I think it can be played on a PS3), and keep the HD resolution/bitrate.

Got it - I'd rather create something more like a DVD so it can be played elsewhere besides the PS3, so i'll dabble with the settings.

I appreciate the help!

Okey dokey! Let us know if the 2 pass encoding makes a difference.
