Hi:
I have had little need in the past to transfer my projects to DVD but the time has come. My most recent project consists mostly of animation (Frame=960x720 16:9@ 30fps). When it was exported as a QT movie using "current setting," the resultant resolution was more than acceptable when played back on an Apple Cinema 23" or a JVC Broadcast monitor. When the QT movie was imported into DVD Pro and the DVD eventually burned in SD with a 4:3 aspect ratio, however, the resultant quality was seriously degraded. While I realize that SD has its own inherent limitations vis-a-vis quality, I wonder if the problem lies in my FCP 5.1.4 QT export settings?
Thank you in advance for any helpful suggestions,
Ron
