Nevermind I jumped the gun and it turns out the video quality is just fine watching it on my home DVD player and television.

Thanks.

I’ll give that a try when I get off from work and let you know.

Thanks for the knowledge. Didn’t think of screen resolution before. Yeah my computer display at home is set to 1024×768 so that makes sense about the video quality since my DVD is set to 720×480.

Thanks

Well I’m at work right now so off the top of my head it was encoded and saved to my desktop from Premiere. Don’t know if it was saved as an Mpeg-1 or 2. Didn’t see that option from the Adobe Mpeg Encoder window.

The resolution was set to 720×480

The bitrate was 7183 for 1hr, 22mins and 17seconds

The framerate is set to 29.97fps

And it’s set to NTSC

Thanks for the help.

Ohh boy that doesn’t sound good. The length of the video is 1hr, 22mins and 17 seconds. Under the export timeline in Premiere in the Adobe MPEG Encoder I’m using 7183 as a bitrate and the video quality is at 39 but it can go up to 50. Should I slide it to 50 instead of 39?

I then took both encoded files into DVD Lab Studio, made all the menus etc. and then burned the DVD. The video quality is horrible in my opinion once played full screen on my computer.

Should I just use a different encoder than the standard Adobe MPEG Encoder, which may produce better results?

Thanks for your guidence..

Thanks guys!! So I will be adding both video clips which the 1st one is 1 hour and 23 minutes and the other video clip is 8 minutes and 14 seconds for a total of 1 hour, 31 minutes and 14 seconds and input that into the bitrate calculator to get a bitrate of 6456 to use to export them out of Premiere using the adobe mpeg encoder.

Since both these video clips are 2 different video projects in Premiere do I use the same bitrate of 6456 for both video projects when exporting?

Just wanna get this clear before I take both projects into DVD Lab.

Is there a default number for the audio bitrate I should choose on that page?

Thanks for all the help and answered questions..
