Ugh

Has anyone by any chance watched my vid for the VVC premieres show, There by Grey Eye Glances for BSG, on their con discs? I was just wondering if my disc set is bad... my vid is horrible, even though I didn't do anything different from previous vids -- all the right speeds, sizes, etc. But on my copy I was just watching, it looks wretched -- everything's jittering in the frames, only a couple of clips don't look bad, the dissolves are kind of snapping off rather than dissolving... I'm kind of sick about it but I don't know what it looks like to others, and I don't remember it looking like that at the Premieres show itself, but I couldn't see anything much at all, so I simply may not have noticed it.

Arg.

It looks fine to me. The avi source is a little soft, but all the dissolves show up smooth. The one in the forest (one of the longest, I think) looks really nice. I thought it played fine at the show (I could see very well), although the projector tended to wash out the colors a little.
But, overall, it looks great on my system.

Have you tried it in a different player (assuming you have one)? Sometimes players just loathe certain vids while playing others fine and while other players play the vid in question without problems. I know that the phillips we used for the vid show happily played the version on the show's disks (as opposed to the distribution disks).

I got a little bit of jitteryness at very the beginning of There with the Sony dvd-r in the living room but it is gorgeous on my SMC. It looked fine at the show.

I don't have the dvd, but I just watched the downloaded version, and it ran just fine. It was also wonderfully done.
