I use a DishDVR (from dish network) to record the "TV" show. Then I inport the show to my PC by the ATI all in wonder 9600XT using s-video And composit audio. I capture in AVI format using Pinnacle Studio 10.5+ Media edition. Then inport it into Vegas+dvd (6.0d) The thing is if I use Studio to make the finished DVD I can get 3 hours of video with good quilty on a DVD5 but I cant even get 1 hour of good quilty in Vegas. Why? This dose not make sense.
If I could capture with vegas I would try that but for some reason I cant get it to work. It did breifly but now it wont.

If you said you've captured it as an AVI from Pinnacle, you don't have to capture it using Vegas. You can just import it through Vegas. Have you tried that? With the 3 hours vs 1 hour of video in DVD5, have you checked the bitrate with the Studio vs Vegas?

If you read my post you'll see that I did not say I captured with Vegas I "import" in to vegas.

It really does sound (as ArCuE says), that you need to examine the settings that you are using in Vegas when rendering to MPEG 2 for the DVD. There are a myriad of options available, but initially, try the 'MPEG2 DVD Architect Compliant video stream' and a seperate AC3 audio track.
It also occurs to me that you're simply letting DVDA do the conversion to MPEG2? It is pretty common knowledge that Vegas does a better job of that compression than DVDA.
Or, if you can't be bothered with any of that, just stick with the Studio route and be happy.

Its fixed now. Edward over at JetDv figured it out. It was a field order issue. I never let DVDA do the rendering only Vegas. As far as Pinnacle goes, Its the most buggy software I ever bought and wish I never bought it. Now I know to stay away from Pinnacle.
