HD to DVD

[Mark Shepherd]

[Shane Ross] ” You cannot make HD files and put them onto a regular DVD. It doesn’t work that way.” It works for me. I have been making SD DVD’s that look great, by importing a HD 1440×1080 60i ProRes LT file directly into EITHER Toast 10 or even IDVD. I am using 1440x 1080 60i settings because I have been shooting in HDV. The quality looks great, even on a 50 inch . It is a one step process, just drag the PRORES file into either program. It takes about 3 hours to encode and burn the first DVD from a 60 min source

Hi guys I have a question about your suggestion to down convert first to SD first. What do I do with the frame rate my footage was shot at 24p. Do i export from FCP leaving the same frame rate or do i change it to 29.97?
