I made two versions of a movie in FCE2, one using QuickTime Movie which produces a Final Cut Express Movie file (7.07 GB), the other using QuickTime Conversion, QuickTime Movie option set to the highest quality, which produces a Quick Time Movie (10.25 GB). The second took the computer much longer to produce. The improvement in playback quality is noticeable. When I import each to iDVD, they seem to occupy approximately the same amount of space in the status window. This suggests to me that they use different codecs, perhaps? Anyway, my question is, if I use the second version, slightly larger, on the DVD, will it play just as well on a DVD player? BobLL
