    I have recently exported a short film to quicktime,then to DVD using IDVD.The quality of the film is really poor even before it gets burnt to DVD.
    Im wondering if there is a setting on quicktime that I need to adjust.A friedn told me it may have something to do with interlacing??

    #3 output lossless DV

    Shane’s Stock Answer #3:

    To export your DV project so there is no loss in quality, simply go to the File Menu and select EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE. Not Quicktime Conversion, fot this will compress the footage. Make sure the settings match your timeline settings, make it self contained and you are set.

    Then import that into iDVD.

    It would be better if you did this compression using Compressor and DVD authoring using DVD Studio Pro.
