Graphics DV MPEG-2
I have a project in NTSC-DV. I am trying to go to DVD, and therefore I compress straight off of the fcp timeline into MPEG-2 files that I load into DVDSP. I know that in this compression, I should keep the fields set to lower first, but this makes graphics look bad. Is it ok if I just compress the intro (a 2 minute sequence of graphics) with progressive frames, and compress the part with actual video to lower field first and then just slap these two MPEG-2’s next to eachother in the DVDSP track timeline?
Thanks,

no.
It all has to be interlaced.DV to mpeg2 is going to look less than perfect no matter what you do.

Apart from that, DVDSP is not flagging progressive flags correctly. You can check it with ReStream (PC only).
