    Edit everything in an HD project template (e.g., HDV 1080) and then render to both HD format and SD widescreen for DVD. Keeping the entire project in HD will give you the most quality options for delivery.

    Thanks John. I have another question. What’s the setting for my 16×9 wedding can play on a 16×9 tv or 4×3 with black on top and bottom.Thanks

    Render to one of the DVD Architect widescreen video stream templates (either PAL or NTSC depending on where you live) and that will create a 16:9 MPEG2 file. Render the audio separately as Digital Dolby AC3. The letterboxing for 4:3 will be added by the set-top DVD player when the DVD is played back. You don’t have to do anything special.
