Need help with video size and clarity when viewing computer videos on a tv through a dvd?

I recently uploaded some videos, burned them to dvd and viewed them on my dvd player, the videos weren't that clear, I can understand that as the comp screen is much smaller than the tv screen, but i was wondering:





can changing the movie's "video scale size" help with the clarity AND





What are some measures i can apply to make the video any clearer/less pixelized

You are correct in that many videos that are primarily built for the Web or a MP4 player have too low a resolution to play clearly on a large screen TV. These lower resolution are typically stored in a video format that is 1024 or 600 pixels wide, perfect for the small screen of a MP4 portable video player but not designed for TV. Even though the number the pixels are not that much greater in TV screens, the TVs attempt to translate the video will often result in blurry videos. I don't know of any options that will result in clearer pictures, although I hear the Apple TV devices do a better job with computer videos than playing MPEGs off a DVD. There are Web sites that offer higher resolution videos, but usually you have to buy because the size and bandwidth requirements are high.
