Q&A: Making a home movie! It is slow!?
Question by visor07: Making a home movie! It is slow!?
I’m trying to make a home video using photostory 3 for windows and save it as a .mpeg. When I play it back on the computer(p3) the pictures come a bit shaky. They are quite big 1mb-3mb, do you think that is the problem? After that I add everything to windows movie maker. But when I want to save the final .mpeg of the whole thing I don’t know what to save it as to playback on either UK or South African dvd players(I think it’s PAL format). But windows media player doesn’t give me the option to save in PAL format only in NTSC. Will it still work on normal dvd players. I the image is slow in the video and shaky, when I write it to a dvd disk will it be the same bad quality when i play it back through a dvd player?
Thank You

NTSC is the analog television system in use in Canada, Japan, South Korea, the United States. So when you burn it, it will work probably on those type of DVD players. I don’t think it will be the same quality when putting it in a DVD player. It is only doing that because your computer has a lot of stuff on it and can’t run very fast. But when you put it on a DVD that is the only thing it has on there, so it should work just fine. Hope that helped.

Whenever I make or see a movie on my computer, it is slow too, so I guess I could say that information is from experience.
Oh, and to put it on a DVD from your computer, get a nice DVD/CD burner like Nero.
