Kathy, I realized just now that I still have 6.5 on my old laptop so
could check through the settings
1. In Adobe MPEG Encoder select DVD and click EDIT
In "Video Settings" you should find under Variable bitrate:
Maximum 6000
Average 4200
Minimum 0
I would change minimum to 3000
Audio Settings: PCM or MPEG Layer2 should bot work but set it to MPEG
Layer2
In "Multiplexer Settings" select DVD in Multiplexing type
You will now find that the MPEG stream has changed from DVD to advanced
and that the file extension
of the rendered video is .mpg. You will only get one file that contains
both video and audio. (not m2v and wav files)
2. VCD or SVCD have a much reduced quality so I would not go for it.
The above settings are what I would use but I don't think they will
speed up the rendering.
3. It is strange that you need to have the camcorder on for editing.
Once your footage is on the HDD
you should be able to continue without it and you will surely not need
it for rendering.
Once you have captured the footage you could transfer it to a faster
computer by copying everything
onto and external HDD or a memory stick and you would not need to
re-capture.
Do you have a firewire port on the computer and the camcorder. If yes, I
would throw out Canopus
and capture with 6.5. If your faster computer has firewire install 6.5
on it and use that one instead -
you don't need Canopus.
Good luck
