Search on this forum for h.264 and you will find quite a few answers on how to deal with it in FCP.

[Emma Ella] “My timeline is 2048 x 1152, 23.98 fps”
Where did you get that frame size? Standard frame size for HD is 1920 x 1080 and 1280 x 720.
FCP never has allowed mixed frame sizes without rendering.

You need to make sure your deck is sending the correct signal.

I suggested highest bit rate because your video is only 4 minutes. That is your best option.

Are you playing the Blu-ray disc on a Blu-ray player or is this a preview on your computer?

I do not believe you can create a h.264 Blu-ray file in your version of Compressor. FCS 3 introduced creating Blu-ray. This is what I do in FCS 3. I use Apple H.264 for Blu-ray preset. In Toast, make sure you set it not to re-encode. I also have the Matrox Compress HD card which encodes h.264 Blu-ray files near real time.
[Brad Jenkins] “Im wondering do i start with hd mpeg2 preset in compressor 3.0.5 (even though that was for the now defunct HD DVD format)”
This setting will not work for Blu-ray. Your Stream Usage must be set to Blu-ray. Once again, you can’t do this in FCS 2.
What you will need to do is drop your QT movie into Toast and let it do the encoding. Set it to the highest setting. On your G5, be prepared to wait. Good thing you have going for you is your video is only 4 minutes.
