Hi all,
I've recently completed my first project using PD9 and have been very impressed overall. One annoyance is a lack of VU meter to help ensure uniform sound levels for the final production. I imported several music files (mp3) to include in the project. As ever, the original recording levels differ between the songs. I tried to adjust the volumes by ear as best as possible but the sound levels on the completed DVD playback does differ. At one point the music overpowers the voices on the original video recording at a point where I wanted them audible (the voices were audible when I was setting the sound levels during the editing stage).
I have referred to the manual, looked on this forum and googled the topic, but couldn't find any specific reference.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks.

I'm guessing the rendered .avi file will need to be re-rendered to MPEG2 on-the-fly before being burned to disc.
I'll take your advice to produce an MPEG2 first. I'm now trying to figure whether to use the original project (with clips, transitions etc. or will he rendered .avi production suffice (without losing quality).
Thanks again.

Thanks for the quick reply Carl.
I've already produced an .avi file for the project. should I re-render the entire project to MPEG2 or could I just put the rendered .avi file on the timeline then go to 'Create Disc'?
Do I risk some loss of quality if I use the rendered .avi file to create a disc?
I hope I'm making sense, I think I'm starting to confuse myself now ;

Hi all,
This is probably a silly question but I was wondering if it's better to create a DVD straight from the editing project, i.e. with all the video & audio tracks, titles, transitions etc in place or use an .avi file that I've already produced from the project. The DVD creation should a lot quicker if I use the prerendered .avi, esp as its a long project with lots of enhancements and a few effects used. Is there likely to be any loss of quality? I'm guessing there shouldn't be as the .avi file is much bigger than that used for DVDs.
Many thanks in advance.
