Pixelation? My bet its the actual source, being either a cam or telesync (as you said a few have this problem..)

Buy the cammers better cameras, or email them advice on how to capture the screen better?




















Or...

Its your actual DVD player, ur dvd player may av probs. with the actual dvd-r.

Yep, I would bet it's the source. DivX is very lossy, and is typically not a good candidate for DVD conversion. Get SVCD versions for better looking conversions.

if i have one of those dvdrips that is really good (ALLiANCE do alot of dvdrips) then i use VSO DivxToDVD. it can convert a 2hr film in just over an hour, pal or ntsc, and pixelation is minimal to none. the completed dvd is usually around 2.5GB.

if i have a less good quality dvdrip (like the
old 400-500MB rips u would have seen a while ago) or a vcd or svcd i just use TMPGEnc as i get amazing results every time

::EDIT:: like you said, u use vso divxtodvd and u use copytodvd to burn it, i use nero to burn it and have no probs. i convert to pal though so im not sure whether it will make a difference
