    Hi,

    I am making a DVD project with about 3,5 hours of video PAL.
    I filmed it 720p25 with the JVC GY-HD111 and exported, after editing it in Avid Media Composer to Uncompressed 8bit video.
    For the PAL project I then encoded it using Compressor (last version) to Mpeg2 2passVBR average 2,0Mbit, max. 7,5Mbit.

    Now I want to make an NTSC DVD, so I reencoded the uncompressed video using Compressor with the same settings as above, but famerate set to NTSC (29,97) and image size to 720×480 16:9. I enabled frame controls and set it all to the ones below the best.

    I have an 8-core 2.26CHz MacPro with 6Gb RAM, but this render took ages. After a whole night, it still had to go through part of the next day. (3,5hours of video in total). I then made the DVD and when I look it back, the video movement is NOT smooth. I played it on a JVC PAL DVD player that plays NTSC DVDs usually perfectly.

    Is this problem due to a setting, or is the movement with Compressor just not nicely converted?

    Thanks

    Ben
