Hello,
I realize this thread is ancient. Really ancient. But who knows, someone might still be keeping an eye on it. With that said, I attempted to rewrap a .DV file using MPGStreamclip following the method you outlined – the “save as” method. However, the quality turned out to be quite poor. Much worse than the original, the .DV file from the MRC1. So, I gave exporting to QuickTime a shot, opting for “Motion JPEG A” compression, and surprisingly, the quality resembles that of the original.
What are your thoughts on this? Am I merely rewrapping, or is this essentially a conversion?
Thanks.
