Poor Quality DVD Answer Here
I have a sony HDR HC1 HDV camera. Camera works great, my uploads to Premier Pro 2 are great, all works quite well until I tried to burn a DVD or AVI or whatever then quality went into the toilet. Been working on this project for a couple days. Finally, I read the book. I took my project and saved it back to my sony camera, hooked the camera up to the HD television. I have lost no quality from the original tape and all the work in Premier Pro was there. I don’t know what the problem was, my burner, computer etc. But I am happy with what I got.

Both exporting to AVI and to DVD entail downrezzing to SD. That’s why you take a quality hit. Apart from your workflow, exporting your TL back to HDV tape, there is currently no viable solution to keep quality at HDV level.

Harm,
Right, but the quality I was getting was well below standard video.
Thanks again

Downrezzing from HDV to SD-DVD gains significantly from de interlacing, at least with material from the FX1/Z1. Either de interlace on export with AME or apply it to the sequence. See if that helps. I found that very beneficial.
