I’ve learned a lot since I laste posted so forgive me.
Sorry I didn’t provide more detail. I’m new I’ll get the hang of it. I’m using DVD Studio Pro 4. I have compressor 2.0.1. I’ve never really used compressor for encoding my dvd projects. I always thought I would loose my chapter markers. I export the video from Final Cut Pro with my chapter markers. I’ve never used the compression markers I really don’t know what they do. The reason I’m burning to my external is because 1. my internal extreamly slow and 2. I want to create a DL dvd and my internal is not a duel layer burner. I was compressing my 5.6 gig project with Roxio Popcorn to fit to a 4.7 with pretty nasty looking results in my opinion. I’ve since since learned that popcorn will burn to a Duel Layer DVD. I was pretty happy to see that. When you say “disc Image” do you mean the TS folder?
In DSP’s encoding preferences: What does the one pass and two pass vbr really mean? I’m guessing Two is better than One? Also what is the deal with the bit rate and max bit rate?
I hope this is enoght information. I really appreceate this help. I’m learning more everyday.
