Export Question - Using Premiere 6.5 MAC OS10.2.8

My goal is to create a full-size DVD movie to show at a conference on a DVD player.

I understand that I can export a full-size, full frame, full qualify DVD via PAL or NTSC.

I am not clear about whether I can export directly to my external DVD burner and have a ready to play movie or whether there is additional software I need to format the movie before I can burn the DVD.

Previously, I have been exporting movies via quicktime for viewing on the web. So, exporting to play on a DVD player is new to me.

Thank-you,

Cherie

Hi Cherie,

The way I've been doing it is to render the entire movie and then drag it into the DVD burning application I use (Toast) which encodes it before burning it to DVD. Toast has a basic standard menu, which is fine for my purposes (demo reels). However, if you want a more commercial look (that is, for the menu - your movie itself will be full quality for your conference) you might want to look into DVD Studio Pro. I believe that iDVD also allows you to make custom menus, but I don't have any experience with that personally.

Another option I have used for quick DVD replications is to output the project to my miniDV deck which outputs simultaneously to my DVD recorder -- just another option to think about...

Corky:

Thank you for taking the time to respond. The basic standard menu is fine for my first go around.

I just need a little clarification on your basic process:

After rendering the movie in Premiere, are you dragging the .tmp file (inside the Adobe Premiere Preview file) into Toast? Or is there another process?

With Toast are you selecting the video tab, indicating DVD and then dragging the contents of the .tmp files into the Toast window to burn?

Thanks again for the help.
