    I usually export with compressor 2 as an mpeg 2 file and then combine this in DVD Studio Pro with my audio and then do a build and burn a DVD from a video TS folder in Toast, this is until I upgraded to Final Cut Studio 2, compressor 3 does not have the same options as 2 and when I use the presets for 90 min dvd it is taking forever, much longer than it did in compressor 2. I tried an experiment and made a quicktime Pro Res 422 HQ 720 by 480 and it only took like 10 seconds to make my movie(holy fast!!), I combined this with my audio in DVD Studio Pro and did a build then burned from a video ts folder in toast. I can’t tell the difference when watching the two different versions side by side but am confused why Compressor 3 is so weird, when trying to just use mpeg 2 format it has three options all of which DVD studio pro told me were uncompatable file formats??? Whats going on ??? Am I missing something??? Any help would be great.

    the look is different but you can do everything in compressor 3 that you did in 2. can you be more specific about what options you are looking for.
