Exporting Sequences for DVD
Making a DVD of your movie is a great way to show and
distribute it. Video DVDs contain high-quality media and
can be played in most set-top DVD players, as well as
most computers with DVD playback capability.
This chapter covers the following:
 The DVD Creation Process (p. 215)
 Adding Chapter and Compression Markers to Your Sequence (p. 220)
 About the DVD Authoring Applications (p. 222)
 Creating DVD-Compliant Sources for DVD Studio Pro (p. 224)
The DVD Creation Process
Whether you choose to create a simple DVD with a single menu and movie or an
elaborate title with multiple menus that include scene selections and several movies
and slideshows, iDVD and DVD Studio Pro provide the tools you need to easily create
the DVD.
Note: You can also archive your projects and media files on a DVD. For that purpose,
you do not need a DVD authoring application. For more information, see Chapter 2,
“
Backing Up and Restoring Projects ,” on page 19.
