You want to resize your video footage to SD before encoding a DVD. Follow the workflow outlined in this Article that I wrote about transferring your HD video to DVD.

I would not recommend changing the video from H.264 for XDCAM. Use Compressor to convert the H.264 to ProRes don’t changed the frame rate.

This is a common problem. Television monitors are exterior lighting don’t mix well. When you try to record a television monitor in a room with regular lighting, you will find that the television picture has the wrong colors. Usually, the colors on the television have a blue cast. The camera is white balanced based on the color temperature of the room while the television monitor is calibrated to it’s own internal settings. To fix this, you will need to calibrate the television monitor to match the color temperature of the room lighting.

What you have is a bad 3:2 pull-down. What I would do is export the video out of Final Cut at 59.97 (1080i60) to ProRes. Import that footage into Final Cut and test by playing the footage back on a television monitor attached to FCP. FCP should inject pulldown on export.

I would not recommend using MP4 as an intermediate format. Using H.264 is already highly compressed and it will take a lot longer to encode your DVD. Use an Intra-frame codec for encoding to DVD.

Two masters for DVD. Each with the following frame rates and resolutions. Submit those for encoding.
NTSC:
23.976
720×480 AnamorphicPAL
24 fps
720×576 AnamorphicRead the article, it will help explain the workflow.

You need to export at two different frame rates from Final Cut Pro. 24p is actually two standards. Film is exactly 24 frames and NTSC is nearly 24 frames (23.976). You want to create a film frame rate and an NTSC film frame rate.

I would recommend following this workflow. Create a 23.976 and a 24 fps master. For DVD PAL is 720×576 and NTSC is 720×480. There’s a significant difference is resolution between the two standards. PAL works better with a 24 fps exactly frame rate where as 23.976 on PAL will produce a frame jump every so often. I wrote an article on transferring HD footage to DVD which might help, as well.

Are you running the audio to the HDMI, as well. Usually, this problem happens when you send the audio and video to different destinations. Make sure your audio and video are going to the same television monitor.
