best exporting format : from final cut pro to dvd pro
hi
i’ve finished my film and need to export it into dvd pro to make my dvd
which is the best format to export it via, to get the very best picture quality ?
– there are a multitude of choices
– i’ve spent ages exporting using some, only to then find that they are NOT accepted by dvd pro ?!
– using standard quick time leaves it looking a bit grainy and not as sharp as i’d hoped
i’d appreciate any comments & suggestions
thank you for your time

you want to export a self contained movie with current settings. then take this into Compressor and make your m2v file and ac3 (for audio), take these files into DVDSP.
If you have a lot of graphing or filters on your seq. you can Export > Using COmpressor, seq does not have to be rendered before you do this. In compressor you make the m2v and ac3, this will always give you the best results, but this is always a slow way to encode and it locks up FCP and Compressor for the entire process.
If you search the DVDSP forum I have many post on getting the highest quality but this is the basic stuff.

Hello again
would you mind giving me a step -by – step idiots guide? As i’ve got it into compressor (I think but as i’ve never used it before i’m stuck)
Once in compressor how do i “make the m2v and ac3” ?
And then what do i do next?
I appreciate you’re time in helping me see the light . . .

Wow thanks for that. There is loads for me to be getting on with and to be honest I don’t understand most of what you’ve suggested but I will follow you’re instructions to the letter.
Many thanks for your time.
