How import your animation for a DVD ?

Hi everybody !

I post for an user who's asked me how can she export her movie in order to read it on a DVD.

She's used Quicktime, codec H.264. The problem is when she read her DVD, it seems sometimes frames are missing, or color change a little (during a very few moment), or image gets many big pixels (like a bad Divx found on the web or a Youtube video). There is no problem when she look with her computer, only via a DVD reader.

My dear friends, would you have a solution for her ? =)

H.264 is relatively new, and decoding on her DVD might not be so updated. So she needs to update her DVD's firmware. She can google for it by using her DVD's full model name.

But if she's not into doing such things, she should simply render her work with a different codec. For anything playable outside the computer i'd stay away from anything Quicktime. Xvid is well supported and does sufficient quality for PAL playback. It also has good sound fidelity. And if your friend just want the most straight forward encoding, MPEG-2 is the compression that DVDs use (as in DVD movies, not data files).
