Share as Mastering/computer format or Audio/Video? (H264 only option there)

Save as MP4?  H264? (43GB)   Pro-res 422 (300 GB!)?

    The authoring application will do the converting to DVD.

    DVD standards will always be SD not HD of any flavour.

     

    Dual layer will be required for 3 hours. Otherwise create an Intermission and use two discs. (give the viewers a break)
