[MacDV] Print to Video

[Djwp]

Hmmm, I did this same project last year and seemed to remember being 
able to export the Motion JPegA to video without having to go through 
creating a separate NTSC DV file.  The M-JPEG-A rendered a beautiful 
file, which then exported crystal clear to digital tape.  It turned out 
great.

However, it was a year ago since I did this.

I will try exporting the file to DV NTSC and then try to print that 
file to video.

Thanks for the tips,
Jill
