I wondered if anyone could help me on a specific problem:
I've been using DVD2SVCD for a long time to encode AVI file to SVCD, using CCE 2.5.I'm plannig get a DVD burner so I started trying to encode my DV home movies (interlaced) to DVD (authoring with TMPG DVD AUTHOR).The problem was the outcoming mpg2 file "lost" some of the colors of the original file,and it looks more "pale" than the original.I tried the "no color convertion" and the "convert to YUV2",and there was no change.I also rtied both "upper field first" and "bottom field first" and there was no difference.Can anyone point out to me generally where the problem lies (or recommend a good guide for such an encoding?)Maybe if I play it on TV it would look better than on the computer screen?
