Roxio's MyDVD Premier 8 and Vista's DVD Maker

2 new DVD apps in a week or so... a great chance to do some comparison testing...
I rendered a set of 6 WMV files using Movie Maker in Vista, using these built-in profiles... all from the same project file:
DVD Quality - 720x480, 3000 kbps video... 3:2 actual aspect ratio with a tag to display at 4:3 DVD Widescreen Quality - same specs as for DVD Quality, 3:2 aspect ratio, but with a tag to display at 1.77:1 HD-720 - 1280x720, 6000 kbps, 29.97 fps HD-1080 - 1440x1080, 8000 kbps, 23.97 fps HD-1080 VC1 - 1440x1080, 10932 kbps, 29.97 fps VHS Quality
Then
I made DVDs with the 6 movies... one disc with the new Roxio MyDVD Premier 8 that just got released this week, and the other with Vista's DVD Maker... both transcoded the wmv files and burned the disc fine...
Now I'm at the fun part, comparing the two discs as they play in various players in XP and Vista systems...
