[Ryan Atkins] "I've done everything from exporting with Quicktime Conversion and using H.264 to exporting to Compressor and using the DVD 90 min best quality."

H.264 is for the Web and in some cases, BluRay disc. Never drop to H.264 before going to Compressor for DVD.

You capture / edit in HDV since that's what your camera shoots. If you have access to something like the AJA Kona boards, I high recommending converting to DVCPro HD or ProRes. Personally, we use DVCPro HD for all our HDV editing.

You export your HDV timeline to Compressor.

You make a 16:9 MPEG-2 with AC3 audio file for DVDSP

You create an SD 16:9 DVD in DVDSP that will play letterboxed on a standard 4:3 TV and full screen on a 16:9 widescreen TV.
