Editing M2P with minimum quality loss

[yuda]

I have an m2p file which I need to edit. After editing with Edius 4.52 I export the timeline to PCE for making a DVD in Encore 2.0. After making the new DVD I noticed reduced quality and also the video in jittery. What is the best way to reedit an m2p file with minimum lost of quality?

Try an mpeg editor like Canopus MPEGcraft or alternatively videoredo

You could also encode using the EDIUS-native Generic MPEG encoder and enable the SegmentEncode option.

Print to file > select MPEG (Generic) Exporter > then check Segment Encode under Video Settings. (Make shure your target settings match source settings)

And specifically, the bitrate.
