Brad -
Though I don't usually burn too many DVDs, I did recently. The video included a lot of slideshows and HD clips from my Canon HF S10 & Sanyo Xacti CA100.
Even though I didn't expect the quality to be much good, being a DVD, it was acceptable. I saw no difference in quality between the slideshows and the HD video clips.
I'm a little unclear about what you mean by "fixed". Over here, it worked as expected.
Have you tried comparing the results when you:
(a) slow down the burn speed
(b) create a folder, then use other software for the actual burn?
Cheers - Tony
