What is the aspect ratio of the originals?
I would simply use Adobe Media Encoder, with a custom setting if it is required.

Dell Precision T7600 (x2)
Win 7 64-bit

Adobe CC 2015.02 (as of 6/2016)

4 internal media drives RAID 5
Typically cutting short form from HD MP4 and P2 MXF. -
Personally, I avoid editing Transport Stream files, and convert to another format for editing. TS is great for transporting over the interwebs, not so much for editing.

Matt, let us know more information about your system and the exact version of Premiere Pro you are using.

Hello Johnny. We need much more information about your system and setup; otherwise this would be pure guesswork.
Let us know about the system you are using, including OS, storage, RAM, etc. Also, go into Premiere Pro preferences and check the audio hardware and audio settings. Let us know what those are.
Many folks will place a lot of the basic system info in their signature, so you don’t have to repeatedly share it when you want some tech assistance. Gather up your info and post, and we’ll see if we can help you.

Where did this MOV file come from? What specs about it do you have regarding frame rate, resolution, etc.?

If it were me, I would create and save a couple of presets in the Modify->Audio dialog. You can then quickly try a couple of presets to determine quickly which sounds best to you for the project, then apply across all clips.
Make one with a stereo channel. Make one with two mono channels. That way you have easy, quick options. I also made one for myself called “no audio, please!” that I apply to all clips where I don’t want raw field sound. Helps me keep the timeline neat as I build, with just a few steps at the beginning of production.

Hard to say what the root cause is. I will periodically seem to lose A/V sync, but the tracks are all still positioned correctly.
I usually do a full shutdown/cold boot and that resolves it.

I’ve never had any luck with it either. I quit fighting it and plugged a powered wireless mic receiver into a mic input and went that route. Not as elegant, but the work got done!

Hi there Duke. Ultimately the answer is – it depends.
On some material you may observe a noticeable difference, and not so much in the case of other materials.
I will sometimes render some short chunks (10 seconds, something like that) both ways and compare.

You will need to download Premiere pro CS6. Encore comes with it, and is not available separately. I cannot explain why you cannot find it online. Perhaps someone else will speak up on that.
Sixteen hours is not as surprising as you might think in thie case. To produce your DVD files, it has to down-convert to SD and convert frame rate from 23.976 to 29.97, You will probably get better video results if you select “Max Render Quality” for the render. This option is exactly for footage that is being resolution-converted or resized. Be aware that will make it take even longer. Remember you are downconverting to standard def, and your video will not be as crisp. DVD does not support HD. You can burn a data disc, but whether or not the DVD player will play it depends on the individual unit. Probably not, though. A Blu-Ray player might. Again, depends on the unit,
You mention a few things about your computer, but not OS, amount of RAM, storage, video card, your current version of Adobe applications, etc. These are all significant factors in Adobe performance.
A two hour HD file could easily be 22GB.
