March 15, 2014 at 6:41 pmIt still looked pretty bad, not much change. I am trying again with the highest constant bit-rate available, which was something like 9,800,000.

March 15, 2014 at 6:47 pmThat’s too high of a bitrate and doesn’t allow any room for your audio file. The result will be a DVD that may skip badly. I’ve authored thousands of DVDs over the years and have never gone over the 8,000,000 limit.
What was the quality of your source video?
Can you upload a small piece to a sharing site such as Dropbox to let us play with it and see how it turns out? -

March 15, 2014 at 6:50 pmWhat file type should I render it at for you? Or do you want just a short clip from the source footage? That would probably work. It is .m2ts footage.

March 15, 2014 at 6:54 pmIt is mostly text that gets way too distorted. I have titles throughout the film. It’s harder to see the pixelated-ness of the actual footage, but when text comes up, it looks awful. So I would suggest test renders that include text to see what I’m coming up against personally.

March 15, 2014 at 6:57 pmI got your clip.
Can you give me an example of the text you’re using (i.e. font, color and size). -

March 15, 2014 at 7:00 pmWhite text, about 12 px in size, Copperplate Gothic Lite (the official branding font for the company the film is being made for).
