Forums / Technical Help / Better quality? (Newbie!)

Hello. I posted this in General Discussion, but maybe it's better off here...

I need some help/advice. I've uploaded a couple of videos and they have come out not very clear. The first one, vimeo.com/1014244, was captured from a miniDV camera using Nero Essentials 7 and exported to a mpeg2 file format. I initially exported it to a dv/avi file, but it was 1.2GB so I needed to make it smaller. Nero allows me to export in a number of different formats.

The second one, vimeo.com/988967, was captured from the same miniDV camera, but I used Windows Movie Maker and saved it using the recommendations given in the Vimeo tutorial.

My question is this, how can I make my videos look better on Vimeo? What format should I use? I'm a beginner at this, so please bear with me.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
