    Hi. I would really appreciate some help. I have a video which I Edited using Adobe Premier Pro. I captured the footage from Mini dv tape. The capture settings seem to be ok i.e they are set at Dv PAL. I exported my video to Dvd using Adobe Encore and set it to the highest quality settings again. The trouble is that when I Project the dvd from a dvd hooked up to a projector the quality is really really bad. I have tried exporting the video as an uncompressed avi but then I cannot figure out how to burn the dvd so it plays on a loop. Again I have been trying to do this with Adobe Encore.
    Id really appreciate help. I need ot looped and hight quality to show through a projector.
    Thanks.

    emm how does the dvd look when you play it in a normal tv (not a laptop or computer). It's pointless exporting it as uncompressed as the originating footage was DV and your project is DV so it ain't gonna get any better than DV.

    It's possible that the projector is blowing the picture up so much that it's just gone to s***.

    Hey there,
    Is there s noticable quality loss between you dv-pal source material and your DVD?
    If there is, you need to take a look at your DVD mpeg2 (.m2v) compressions settings. For a good quality DVD you need to look at using a VBR, somewhere in the region of 5.6 - 7.1 Mbps. If you go higher you will get playback problems.
    If there is not a noticable difference between your source material and your DVD, then its just the blow-up.
    DV PAL generally doesnt have the resolution to blow up well, especially if the material is from a consumer cam...
