I have a 2 minute video clip and I would like the highest quality playback. I setup the clip in AE 5.5 and compressed it with Cleaner 5.1. My playback is a PC at a tradeshow booth. ( Fujistu P series Lifebook with a Crusoe chip)

I have an MPEG setup at 640x480 but there is some artifacting around text. Can I setup a DVD movie for better quality in iDVD or FCP3 on my mac and get it to loop fullscreen on a PC?

This is a little new to me and I appreciate some helpful tips. Thanks!

iDVD can't make DVDs that continuously loop. You would need a more flexible DVD production software like DVD Studio Pro for that.

Without knowing more, if I was given this task, I'd make a QuickTime movie with Sorensen 3 compression, high quality. Then I'd set the QuickTime player on the PC to play it full screen, looping.
