right… that’s why the attempt to encode to mpeg2 and make a standard dvd. If I try to make a standard DVD in DVD SP and import the Quicktime file I was able to export, then I get incompatible format as it is still in some kind of HD format, I assume.

If I change it to HD DVD in DVDSP, as you state, then yes, I won’t be able to play it on a standard DVD player, so that doesn’t help me.

If I figure out why the encode is crashing or other options to get around that, then I should be fine.

Thanks for any assistance or suggestions.

Hi,

Thanks to all for their responses. Ian’s response solved my issue.

Not sure if this is the same in FCP 5, but I’ve got FCP 5.1 and I can choose whether I capture individual clips or one complete clip from my Sony HC1. The switch is under Log & Capture … Clip Settings. Just uncheck Create new clip on Start/Stop. Hope this helps.

Thank you!!!!!

Rob
