I have Vegas Video, and am currently rendering
as Windows media audio/video files.

They are coming out great, and still very small size.

I finally got registered to render Mpeg2. The problem im
having is, the Mpeg's are coming out much larger.

About 10x bigger. And they dont seem to look as good.

Any ideas about what i'm doing wrong? I've tried
changing the custom settings, but they arent as
straightforward as the Window media custom properties are.

Any particular bit rates i need to know about?

I'm familiar with audio compresion. But there are a million
settings for Mpeg it seems.

Thanks for any advice,
Todd K
