    hello!! i am new to all this, but i have a video that i converted using convertxtodvd and it looks perfect on the computer but when i put it in my dvd player to play on tv it looks like hell. the screen size is fine, but the video just looks awful. i thought maybe it got messed up in the conversion process but i took the dvd to work and played it on my work computer and it is crystal clear....so maybe i am missing some sort of critical step in convertxtodvd? perhaps a resolution option? i have a 32' 720p LCD television. any thoughts? thank you!

    What was the format (file extension) of the video you converted and what was the resolution (picture size)?

    There are many different types of .avi files. When you get home check the file extension and resolution.

    Are you NTSC or PAL? Have you set CXD to whatever you are?
