Apologies for what is probably a very basic question with an even more obvious answer. Being new to Imovies & editing in general I finally managed to create a DVD via Imovies & IDVD. The issue is that the picture quality when watching the DVD is poor - the Picture looks like it is speeded up. The movie in idvd is only 2.2gb. When I went back & tried to save the original movie in Imovie via the "share" function (vs in iDVD) - in full DV mode it would be over 6.7GB (the movie is 32 mins long). Net, my questions are this;
1) Is the reason it looks speeded up because idvd has compressed the movie & reduced the frames?
2) Is it possible to increase the frames/quality (say from 2.2Gb to 4gb) without reducing the length and make idvd accept it - if so how do you increase the quality & stop idvd compressing so much. Do I need to do this in imovies or Idvd?
3) How do I stop idvd compressing the movie at all and just adding say all 4GB of a 4GB movie?
4) If I want DV quality on one DVD - do I basically always need to keep the film short?
I really appreciate anyones help on this - as I am lost!
