Bob,
We use compressor and have for the last 9 years to convert HD to DVD and it works beautifully. Well enough that a lot of screen manufacturers used our DVD’s to demo their screens until Blue Rey and HDDVD came out.
Also if you’re ever looking for some neat HD American Stock footage or clips from Africa, India or china stop by our website at https://WWW.Bennett-Watt-HD-Stock-Footage-Library.com.
Post if you need any instruction on how to make this work. I use a 6.5 mbs setting, but the default for 90 minutes works fine too.
