This is after I upgraded my computer with new RAM, 250Gb hard drive, upgraded my Premier Elements to 2.0 and have had to do the video 3 times over when I had to upgrade Window XP! The video quality of the games with my new camera look awesome on the DVD preview, much better than the other video done on tape. I am trying to burn on DVD-R dvd's as opposed to RW and that did not help. Video was taken at 16:9 wide format - could that be the problem? I know that because the camera is so new it is not listed as one of the supported cameras. So I finalized the mini DVD's in the video camera and then added media from the disk drive which worked fine and looked great. Don't know what the problem is and how to fix it - ready to dump Premier Elements at this point if another video software tool will be better and not have these issues. Any suggestions? The Picture Package software that came with the package doesn't come close to having all the features needed for the type of video editing that I have done. HELP! Anyone know what the problem is or suggestions on solutions? I really don't want to have to dump the footage shot with the new camera and cut the video in half if I don't need to (too many boys will be cut from the video).
