that's ok, I understand. it just means I need to take the extra time to learn how to do it best to preserve video quality. I just hope the dvd process doesn't hurt the quality of the contest, but I'm sure it will affect all the videos in the same way at least.

Yeah, it was all right. ^_^ Hey! the quality of the Footage wasn't DVD Quality- But it was pretty close. Steve (Also Known as LostOwl) is working with me on developing the AMV Contest as you would when buying a DVD from FYE or any DVD Store. The AMV Contest DVD has a root menu, with options to pause in between each AMV, or the option of playing the AMVs in a row.

Also, with each AMV entry, a clip is copied from your AMV and used as a backdrop image on the Screen. -It's pretty cool. ^^

I'm still a bit confused. if our video already includes credits, and it is a digital submission, how is it that it would need 15 seconds of blank space. for example, an average one of my amvs will already have 5 or so seconds of credits at the end. wouldn't adding another 15 seconds of black screen just put too much space between that video and the one after it? I understand needing the blank space for videos that do not have credits so that you can add them yourselves, but I don't follow the reason to add empty space to a video that doesn't need to have credits added.

To make the AMV Contest DVD Quicker to make.

-All I know is that AMV Submissions have to be that way. ^_^
(I find it a bit confusing too, but it was descided when making the DVD)
