Intermittent audio saving to tape

[Mark Jeghers]

I am using a Sony TVR-22 and a 1Ghz Toshiba laptop,
512Mb RAM, WinXP Pro, Movie Maker 2, and firewire.

I can capture video fine (with minimal dropped frames)
but when saving a video back to the DV tape, the audio
cuts in and out intermittently, and the video seems to
stutter very slightly.

Could this just be that I need more COU speed? Isn't
1.0 Ghz enough? Anyone had experience with optimizing
the export to tape?

Windows Movie Maker lacks settings for saving to DV tape
like slower frame rate or smaller size. If I could adjust those
might it help?

Are there any other "save-to-dv-tape" tools that might
work better?

Thanx-in-advance
Mark

Sorry, I had one typo, COU should have been CPU :-)
