Here are the results of the tests I promised.
With MF4 I had severe problems with two different clips, call them
Clip A and Clip B.
Clip A: The clip was a music video which I ran thru VRD QuickStream
Fix to make sure it was DVD compliant and to correct any problems. The
clip played just fine on both hardware and software DVD players. I
imported it into MF4, added text overlay (Enhanced Video Text) and
exported it. Then I played it and the audio was out of sync. I ran it
thru VRD QS but that did not fix the problem. I then used VRD Adjust
Audio Synchronization and discovered that the audio was 1/2 second
off. I corrected that and imported it into MF4 which accepted it. I
them went thru the same procedure with TDA and the clip played without
any problems - so I did not have to adjust the audio sync like I did
with MF4. This shows that MF4 caused the audio to go out of sync.
Clip B: This clip was also a music video which would not import
properly into MF4. It took a very long time to process it and it did
not display any video when it finally finished the import. The
exported clip would not even play and was only 10% of the original
size. The only way I could work around this problem was to make a DVD
copy and work from that disc. The import and export from the copy disc
worked in MF4. I then tried the same thing with TDA and had no
problems - the original clip that crippled MF4 worked fine in TDA.
So there you have it, sports fans, two instances in which a perfectly
good clip which runs fine in hardware and software players and work
fine with TDA causes MF4 not to work properly. This was not caused by
operator error, as has been alluded to before, and it was not caused
by bad source material, as has neen alluded to before. The reality,for
those who can accept reality, is that MF4 has some very serious bugs,
The good news is that TDA works with both those clips.
FWIW.
