Re: mpeg2 with pc and mac - Help

You should not be having sync problems with FCP. Chances are you need to update the FCP or make sure there is nothing wrong with your tape. Media 100 to iDVD is not good for quality. You could encode your DV clips to MPEG-2 on the PC with TMPG- the other program you mentioned won't cut it. But then you'd still need to return them to the Mac- which is a headache if the machines are not networked.

Bottom line- if you can afford a burner and some simple authoring software on the PC- that will be the most painless route. Otherwise the job will be much more complex and time-consuming.
