    Hi there, i was wondering if anyone could give me a hand, I used Ulead MediaStudio Pro 8.0 for the first time today to capture, then edit a video taken from a JVC mini-DV camcorder. I then burned the finished product onto a DVD using nero. But i found when I was watching it back on my DVD player it was jumping the whole time. I'm no expert and I don't know all the terminology but it was like the frames weren't put together properly, it wasn't flowing video for want of a better word! :( I was just wondering does anybody know did I use the wrong settings or what? :confused:
    Thanks, Ian.

    can you elaborate more on what you mean by 'jumping'. possible a field dominace problem. When you took the video in, did it mention anything about field ordering like upper or lower (or possible, bottom or top) field first?

    Was the "finished product" jumping before it was burnt? At what stage of your editing/authoring process did the jumping start?

    What I mean by jumping is the video isn't continuous, the picture quality itself is perfect and the sound is continuous, but the video seems to jump from frame to frame, or as if there's a frame missing. It's hard to explain!

    No it was jumping before I burned so i suppose that means it wasn't the burning process that was the problem. I captured the video as .avi and it's not jumping, so I reckon myself I didn't have the right settings for saving the "finished product" as an MPEG. If anybody has any experience with using this particular program (Ulead MediaStudio Pro 8.0), would you be able to tell me the settings you use for saving your edited video for burning? I suppose the best idea would be for me to experiment myself and learn from my mistakes, but if anyone could help me it'd be greatly appreciated! ;)

    probably you captured the video as an mpeg capture instead of avi (dv) uncompressed. Your computer beeing not too fast (processor, ram or hdd transfer speed) skipped some frames just to concentrate more on encoding on the fly (real-time). U should first make the capture as AVI-DV and after convert that movie in to mpeg2 dvd compatible.

    I had a similar problem. Turned out my hard drive need to be defragged.
    I defragged it, copied my source clips to a new directory, then re-editted with the new location files. all worked fine in the end. May not be the source of your problem, but worth a try
