Any benefit to rendering the timeline before exporting?

Or, is the timeline actually being rendered while you're exporting (this is what I think). Just wondering if there is any quality improvement with rendering before encoding.
Looking at DV on a 47" screen is painful.... Come on Blue Ray!
I used to export DV AVI and let DVD Architect encode as it automatically optimizes but I may have to dump to mpeg 2 and do the math.
Thanks!

In CS4, you can opt to use the rendered files from the timeline for your final export, however I would only pick that option if you are previewing to a lossless codec, as you may be doing in desktop mode.

Thank you.
As I had suspected. I've been getting a pixelated look during slo-mo segments whereas in the past it just got a bit more blurry.
Exporting to DV AvI and letting DVD Architect do the encoding. May have something to do with the really bright (gray ocean at the back) conditions but this is new....CS4 thing?
Appreciate the input.
Best,

"you can opt to use the rendered files from the timeline for your final export"
Really - how do you do this in CS4.
I really need to this feature - it could save hours of rendering time in AME that was already done (in HD) in PPro.
