Until recently my computer captured well, edits clean, and out put to DVD crystal clear. Now image edges pixelated and jittery. Zoom and pan on stills (all formates)produce flickering lines... is this allyasing?... how is it corrected. System has 1g ram two 120g hard drives w/ 60g+ availible on each... using Windows xp w/ latest drivers and updates. Help.

Sounds like something in your output settings might have changed. What software do you use? The more details you cna provide, the easier it will be to figure out the problem. I don't think it is your hardware at the moment.

I use Screenblast Video Factory Deluxe, Edition, and Studio 8... all having features I use. All also produce the same pixilated flickering. The avi files created pre-flicker still look great... re-renders look bad. Previews of newly captured DV both my cameras (including my new VX2100) have this problem. Recently I found the voice overs newly recorded sound like I'm across the room... stuck in a barrel.

In effort to find something that worked, and curiosity, I down loaded and/or picked up demos for Avid, Vegas, and Studio 9... could this, exacerbate the situation?

Finally, after editing (or at least experimenting) for 2 years, I'm disappointed by Edition. Avid is nicer than Edition, but Vegas seems to hit the mark. I would like to have professional software, approach, work flow and result. Can Vegas fit or should I look harder at Avid.

Thanks for your input

exact same thing happened to me twice and replacing the firewire card fixed it both times.

Vegas is as professional as any of the others.
