To blur seems to be the only way. But of course it degrades the picture. Best results I got with FX for blur and then with a FX for sharpen.
Rendering it out as progressive as recommended by vegasarian does not solve the problem since the picture is part of a longer video. I cannot render the whole video as progressive. I tried to render the photo only out as progressive and then to put this back into the normal video when edditing – did not make any change. Perhaps I did something wrong.
Thanks a lot for your help!

To me it is a missing function that DVDA does not support PAL DVD where MPEG2 sound is a possible standard. And MPEG2 was THE standard for PAL DVD before they accepted AC3 (I think in 1997). Did Sony overlook this?

So there is no way to switch this behavior off :-(((
I know that it is a double-click but it happens so easily when you have several tracks with subtitles and want to edit. Are chapters so frequent at other DVDs that it has to be so easy to insert them with a double-click? I guess there is room for improvement in DVD A3. Do not want to change my decades old double click speed because of DVD A3…only…

So many videos on one menu page will not look so good. You might have to use more pages or to give up the thumbnail view of the videos and simply stick to a text link. When you right click on any of your video buttons select text only. But 25 is still a lot on one page even as text only. Perhaps there are topics allowing you to group the videos. Then you can make this topics as different menu pages even with thumbnails. So the viewer can choose a topic on your first menu page and dig deeper.

In respect of “very noticable” I cannot confirm your statement here on my computer – sorry + it depends on more than simply “different drives”. And it respect of SATA II (what does not stand for 3 GB but is mostly missused) – 3 GB/s is a speed that no HD can handle. They had/have problems with ATA 133 or even ATA 100 alread. Simply make a write/read speed test to see what your HD can handle.

It is hard to say but most likely you might get a small advantage if you move the source files to a different HD than the rendered output.
Imagine a drive is reading a video file for Vegas and so the arm moves to this location. If you do not write to a different location at THIS drive the HD will read the next file or piece of this file perhaps close to this location. So the arm has not to move very far (depends on the time how long it has to wait for the next read before it goes to the save area). But if you WRITE in between then the arm will jump to a different location where space is. For the next read the arm has to position again. In addition to this some drives get problems with their buffered contents – in the worst case they clear it when you write.
And it depends how fragmented your drive is. The less the more sense it will make to use different HDs and the faster Vegas will render because the HDs are faster and the arm does not have to move so much. And it depends on the partition size – the bigger the further away fraqmented file pieces might be.
But there is one more file that is sadly important – the Virtual Memory with the Page File. M$ still does a not so good job and it uses it a lot even with WinXP. This works – depending on the installed memory and other running tasks – against Vegas.
So I guess the best combination would be to read the files for Vegas from a different HD than on what the system is and to write to the HD where the system is – in case that you have only 2 HDs. This all is based on the assumption that your HDs have the same speed. If not just think that Vegas has to read much more than it writes when it renders – if you use a compression like AVI to MPEG. So the files to read should be on the faster HD.
But in any case – do not expect to speed up Vegas so that you might get dizzy 😉 I mostly do not watch Vegas rendering for hours and so the problem might be not so big.
If you really want to speed up something than put your Internet browser support folders (temp folder, etc.) into a RAM-disk. Most people do not realize that Internet is one of the most challenging tasks for a HD… But this is a different forum I guess 😉 And perhaps you have high-speed and do not use those folders at all.

This is for sure the best advice since all the tricky calculations will not really work very well. They have to be adjusted for each listener and this is impossible with standard products. Otherwise we would have had a flood of such applications already for a long time.

The separation between left and right should be 100 percent – at least when you give the data to your player. What this does is a different story.
I guess what you want to achieve is an illusion that the speakers are further apart. This requires a tricky recalculation of the sound information. If you have the latest Nero you might have Nero Soundtrax. Perhaps this might help you. There is a Stereo Processor. But for sure there are other audio editors doing the same.

If the registry has only those entries and nothing else the system might not work anymore :-)))
Here your advise:
—————————————————————————-
Look in your registry, and make sure it only has these entries, and nothing else.[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Sony Media Software\MC MPEG Plug-In\1.0\License]
“CurrentKey”=”XX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX”
“InstFlags”=dword:00000010 -
I have exactly the same problems with one of my players. All factory-made DVD movies without any problem. Only my own with DVDA3 created DVDs have this – all of them. But it is an old player and so I thought this might be the problem. Have to try Encore when I have time.
