October 19, 2009 at 8:00 pmExport a Self-contained, Current Settings QT movie, do not use QT Conversion. Bring this file into Compressor and use the DVD Best Quality 90 Minute setting: one for video (mv2) and one for audio (ac3). For the ac3 setting change the Compression Preset from Film Standard to None and Dialog Normalization from -27 dbFS to -31 dbFS. When Compressor finishes the encode, start DVD Studio Pro and import both files. Drag them into a Track, set the track for First Play and adjust the track parameters for Display Mode: 16×9 Letterbox. Then Build/Format the DVD. For more detail, search the Cow and you’ll find it.

Also.. Have you been able to put a Drop Shadow on a clip you have slowed down to make it play smoother on FCP?Robert Sherwood

October 21, 2009 at 9:34 pmHow did you make the DVD? That error is strange.
