Converting Xvid for use in iDVD or DVD Studio Pro

[ehmjay]

Hey everyone,

I have a bunch of XviD files on my new Mac that I want to burn to DVD in either iDVD or DVD Studio Pro. The question is how should I do it? Should I convert using Quicktime Pro, another Program, Final Cut Pro or what?

I would also like to add chapters eventually so i was thinking putting it into FCP and adding chapters and exporting, however when I realized the render time would be aprox 18 hours I thought perhaps they're is a better way.

Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.

ffmpegX or Mpeg Streamclip will work. The latter app is easier. Convert to DV, then drop into iMovie. Add the chapters and send it over to iDVD. Get coffee...get more coffee.
