Video encoding question...

So, here I am trying to rip video from my camera DV source in Pinnacle Plus 9. I'm capturing at full DV quality and the preview looks great. However, once it's finished recording, and I go to edit what I've recorded, there are distinct horizontal lines visible throughout the recording. The quality is MUCH lower then what the preview shows.

I've tried encoding in MPEG and the lines are not there, however in high movement there's a lot of blurring and things are just not right.

Needless to say, the finished encoded product from either recording leaves a lot to be desired against what shows in the preview window while it's recording.

Anyone know what may cause this or how I may solve it?

Computer specs are as follows:

P4 2.4C running at 800 MHz FSB overclocked to 3.14 GHz.
1 gig 400 MHz DDR RAM running dual channel at 800 MHz FSB
S-ATA drives so recording speed is easily met
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 meg video card

Any help/assistance is appreciated.
