I normally send FCP timelines to compressor to get the best quality and with HDV it is probably even more important to do it that way, It takes longer to encode but the quality boost is worth it.

I also recommend CBR encodes for the best quality. 6.5Mbps seems to be the sweet spot for quality and playability.

cool so i should let compressor do the compressing and not dvd studio pro but do i need to tell dvd studio pro not to compress it or dose it already know i just want to avoid the footage being compressed twice

dvdsp will not compress m2v files and you will get better results gong from the timeline into compressor for sure.
