taterhead:Is DVDShrink a better compression program than that used by Studio? I just burned a 112 minute DVD and noticed that the quality was down to 58%. Will I get better output quality if I render the movie to a folder but not burn the disk, compress it with DVDShrink and then burn the DVD?
In my experience yes - but only if you created the project contents in Studio to fit DVD9 media - DVDShrink then ensures you use as much disk space on the final DVD5 media as possible (quite a bit more than Studio in most all cases)
