For future reference, you can use a nanoFlash to record SD DVD compliant MPEG2 that doesn't require any encoding/transcoding. The nanoFlash can also record Blu Ray ready MPEG2.

The Nano Flash also has a hefty price tag as well as a cumbersome set up.

To add to this thread/topic. Which resolution/frame rate (ex-1/3) would be best suited for DVD? Also if a client wanted the original files for editing purposes which conversion (codec) would be most suitable in terms of retaining quality?

DVD workflow
 

Thanks for all the advices/replies!

Right now all the set top/encoding do not fit my needs as I need to insert a copyrights roller in the beginning of each DVD.
I need to make a DVD for the people I interviewd. They are usually 70-90 year old folks - I am lucky if they even have a simple set top DVD player to watch...
Perrone - I am working on a HP XW8400 - dual Xeon 3.0 - not the newest of Hardware... so the clipbrowser exports do take me a while. (of course I do them overnight but still...)
This is supposed to be a long term project (1-3 years) - so I might consider investing in the Nano Flash,
considering it gives me many more features exept the SD MPEG2.
any way, I'm waiting for the MC5 upgrade in the next few weeks, I'll see how that works out.

Arbel.
