Settings / Configuration Questions

I have been trying to render an AVI in A:M that I can use in a Pinnacle movie I'm creating. According to Pinnacle, I need to have the following settings on the AVI:

 

Quality: DV

TV Cropping: Yes

NTSC: 720x480

Audio: 44 kHz 16-bit Stereo

 

So far I've made several attempts to render AVIs but once I insert them into the Pinnacle movie and burn it to DVD they only appear as a green screen on playback. I've adjusted the frame size on my animation to 720x480, but this still hasn't corrected the issue.

Does it play ok within Pinnacle before you burn it? If so, then it's a setting within Pinnacle that needs changing.

No, it isn't playing in Pinnacle before I burn the movie. I see it as just a solid color on the timeline and playback.

So probably the avi file is blank as well or, Pinnacle (which I know nothing about) perhaps does not take the avi format or the codec you are using (after you select avi in AM click on settings to set the codec).
