DV PAL into NTSC playable DVD? WEEKEND EMERGENCY!!
Hey Cow Gang long time no post!
I have a client who needs an NTSC Playable DVD made by Monday for a film market event and the 2 trailers that need to go on this DVD are from FCP6 time lines that are DV PAL – another editor apparently gave it a go and the resulting DVD has “jagged edges” and looks awfull according to the producer.
Sequence ONE is DV PAL 25fps

AnamorphicSequence TWO is the same thing except NOT anamorphic
I want to know the best workflow from FCP / compressor into DVDSP going from from PAL DV into an NTSC DVD – i have tried using compressor but there was a weird jittery / stuttery playback issue when i encoded the resulting NTSC movie file in compressor and authored it in DVDSP. a while back – ultimately because we were under a time constraint i just made PAL DVD’s for them. Now i want to get at the heart of the problem and figure out why the playback is messed up.
Am i transcoding from PAL DV to NTSC incorrectly in compressor? My settings seemed correct on that first attempt but maybe someone can tell me there recommended compressor setup for doing this. Is it happening when I make the DVD files out of the transcoded movies? I need help fast gentlemen so any help you can provide would really be appreciated.
Thanks and enjoy the weekend friends.
best,
Lisa
