I'm pretty new to FCP but not to non-linear.(former Avid Liquid user) I need some guidance for a recommended workline, taking my sequence from FCP to Compressor and then to , either, DVD Pro or iDVD.I currently have dozens of 2 two hour seq's that I ultimately need to burn to DVD-5. Problem is, I believe I captured at some ungodly uncompressed setting because when I export to QT as a self-contained movie, it's kicked out as a 26gb file. Then I imported into Compressor and used the DVD Best Quality 120 minutes setting and results are a 4.3gb file. However, I'd like to use iDVD(until I'm more familar w/DVD PS)but I can't drag and drop the separate audio/video files into iDVD. Is my current workline correct? Am I asking iDVD to do too much? Video formats are VHS,8mm video and MiniDV. Thanks for any suggestions,Fabe
