Thanks for the response. I have burned one of the projects I have been having problems with onto DVD, and it does look like it is pixelated. Now I think the problem may be in the rendering rather than in the importing. Before I render a clip I imported it looks fine, and then it loses resolution when I render it. This also happens with graphics I make; after I render them, they get random dots around the words. Media that I log and capture does not have any problem. My render settings are at high. Why would my pictures render at a low resolutin?
