HUH??? Nero 6 VCD slideshows FUZZY, nero 5.5 SHARP
Posted by Thomas G. Marshall on October 5th, 2004



Ok.................................help.

I recently purchased Nero 6, and now my VCD slideshows are producing fuzzy
images on my Dell's teac DVD+RW (when burning a -R cd).

The same files, when I had burned them with Nero 5.5 (on a cheap CD-R
cyberdrive, that couldn't possibly matter, could it?) produced very sharp
slideshows.

I know that the technical horizontal resolution for VCD is clamped down to
something like 352 or 704 (I am getting differing answers on the web). So
Nero presumably has to do some image conversion.

Did Nero 6 use a different set of [@#$% up my pictures] defaults?

PS. I'm a software engineer, so you can save energy and not dumb down the
answer tooooo awfully far.

[I'm sorry, I keep forgetting how many good replies there are in rec.video.
Shoot me later for this combination multi and cross post.]
