DVD Studio Pro requires demultiplexed (aka elementary) streams in order to import video, audio and stills into your project. The video and audio must have been previously encoded to DVD specifications also. The biggest problem you might encounter is the video was encoded without closed GOPs, or too large of a GOP.

If this is your first time using DVDSP (or one of the first times), you'll find its not very intuitive in terms of the natural flow of steps to make a project work. Spend some time reading the manual. Even though it too isnt done very well, you'll save yourself a week or more of frustration by looking at it.

Thanks for the input AntnyMD.

Yesterday I figered out the settings in MediaPipe so it would work in DVDSP. I used the some of the same settings if I was decoding a ripped DVD mpeg2 to mpeg2 to a lower bit rate for for DVDSP. I ajusted the scale and blackbourders. The same CVD works great on CD-R and DVD.
