Yeah, create a DV 4:3 project in Premiere, then import your Xvid files and scale them to fit. Quality may be nasty…

I was answering the random menus question…that is all.

Actually, a poster frame for a chapter can be anywhere in the same timeline…it’s not limited to the chapter itself.

Xvid is a highly compressed format, and it throws away a lot of visual data to do it. If you plan to use it for a DVD, it’s going to have to be resized to 720×480 for NTSC or 720×576 for PAL, with the correct pixel aspect ratio for either format, and it will be re-compressed, which usually means more quality loss.
Do you have Premiere or another NLE?

It’s not the size of the files you need to worry about, it’s the duration. You should be able to easily fit two 45 minute video files onto a single disc. However, if your 45 minute files are 700 MB, they are already very compressed. What format/codec are they compressed with? If possible, try to get a less compressed video file before you bring it into Encore, which will re-compress video if it is not encoded to MPEG-2 for DVD.

Export a self-contained QT MOV file (not QT reference MOV).
If your audio is not exported at 16 bit 48 kHz, then export video and audio separately.

I don’t understand the questions.
You can only have one video in the background. And what do you want to make smaller?

Which version of Encore have you got?
-
1. You need to render motion menus
2. Check ‘Animate Buttons’ in Button properties, and then render motion menus
3. Which version of Encore do you get this in?
4. You have an internal error- Encore doesn’t have enough info to provide any further detail. Not sure what you mean by “try to see my ready menus”- can you provide more detail? -
Glad to hear you got it done. In future, if it is just a background, you can have import it into Encore’s Library, and then replace the background.
