Using the MAGIX, recording from an analog video (the tape was recorded by a SONY handcam type CCD TR 565E pal, movie duration 1:3 min.
Later on, through the “burn” process I copied the files with a DVD-R.
That’s when I realized that when the dvd-player played the movie on the tv, the picture was not clear and was trembling. As a result the dvd could not be played accordingly.
What can I do to fix this problem?

If you are viewing the digitised recording on a HD TV then the picture quality is going to be poor due to upscaling of low resolution video to hires TV.

Hi 8 video has a digital equivalence resolution of 560x480px and because the signal recorded on tape is of limited bandwidth the quality of any recording is not going to match that of DVD (720 x 576) or HD TV (1920 x 1080 or higher).

The 'trembling' may be a result of using too high a resolution setting when recording, poor quality of the recording or deterioration of the tape due to age, and / or wear in the camcorder causing synchronisation issues.

Capturing the video should ideally be done at the same resolution as the video however at DV standard ie 720 x 576 px (PAL) or 720 x 480 (NTSC) is close enough.
