Anime DVDs????????

Question

I made a few Amvs with my friends sony vegas. And the quality is really bad. I Have a few anime series on Dvds. Would the quality be better if I used them in my ams instead of downloading anime episodes from like torrents and veho? and if yes how would I get the Dvds on my computer? Just putting them in my computer dosen't work? Thanks in advanced

Answer 1

I can't specifically address what program to use to capture DVD images, if thats what you are asking, but just about any widows or mac computer should have software to play dvd's on your computer (assuming you have a DVD drive on the computer).

Answer 2

If you are using AVI's or especially MKV anime files that you downloaded, the quality between those and a DVD rip are going to be neglibible (heck some of those ARE DVD rips).  If you are using REAL media files (aka files that end in RM or RMVB), then yes it would be better to get new media.

If your videos are coming out lower quality than the videos you put in, then the problem is what you are doing with in Sony Vegas, not the videos themselves.  Change encoding settings for more optimal output.

And if you want to get DVDs onto your computer, use DVDShrink.
