First off I should state that I am very green to the whole HD experience. I recently shot a musical performance using an HVX-200 and an HV 30. I shot at 720 24p with the DVX and I shot in HDV1080 24p (cinemode) with the hv30. I captured through the firewire with the HV 30 and imported the clips from the P2 card with the HVX 200. All looked fine in the timeline and I was able to edit with no issues. My problem now is that I am not sure how to export from this timeline. I also would like to know if you can point me in a clear direction as far as workflow for the HVX and the hv30. I would love to be able to use these cameras in tandem if possible. Thanks

You should no problems working with these two cameras in FC 6.0.4. Have attempted an export? You can make a self contained .mov in just about anything you need exporting directly from the timeline and for a DVD you may want to use Compressor and start with the preset DVD setups that best fit your needs. You may find a tutorial that can help you learn Compressor to take advantage of the best setting.
