Hi, can anyone tell me if the DVD Encoder Settings are locked on the trial version? I have tried changing the settings to improve the quality of the output and I can see the estimated size of the DVD increases as I woud expect. But when I burn a disc it reverts back to default settings which in my humble opinion is pretty poor quality.
I'm not going to purchase PhotoStory unless I can see what the best quality settings look like once I've burnt to DVD on a TV.
Appreciate any comments.
I am not so sure that the DVD encoder settings revert back to some kind of locked defaults in trial version. How do you see/check that? Which settings are reverted back? Or are you saying that you increase the bitrate and quality to max, but the output is still soft? In that case, I believe it is the anti-interlace/antiflicker filter at work.

It is about movie edit pro, but with respect to DVD encoding it is exactly the saem as in Photostory. In short, you have to unckeck anti-interlace(flisker surpression) filter, to get sharp DVD output.
