Also - you may notice that I've updated this one to NOT annoyingly start playing automatically. Jim Clark (http://www.clarkezone.net/default.aspx?id=53048146-9770-4aa1-a89a-05617c1e5194) has this post on how to change that.

Yeah.. I'm thinking that maybe the first rendering (into a format that Expression Encoder will work with) may have caused that. I'm going to play with some different formats and see if I can find one that matches the output.

I'm just learning Expression Encoder, and right now it seems like you can't publish without rendering the video, because it's the rendering that also creates the files that are then (either later, or immediately) published to Silverlight Streaming. So perhaps if I don't publish, and just replace the video prior to publishing, I'll get a better result.

If this is 720p, I find it stange that the video has very noticable interlacing when people move or when the camera pans horizontally.
