First of all, a DVD is a series of MPEG files.
You can render out a DV-AVI file and let DVDA do the encoding for you which
is what I'd recommend you do for now . I personally prefer to do this from
Vegas where I have a lot more control.
The final quality probably will look different but this is because you're
compressing the original file (sometimes substantially) to get it to fit.
DV-AVI is 13 GB/hr. while a DVD is only 4 GB. Converting a 1 hr. video to
DVD is a 3:1 compression and it gets worse as it gets longer.
2 more Vegas sites for you.
http://www.blue7media.com/vegas/ is a comprehensive collection of Vegas
links.
http://tinyurl.com/bgtgj is a linkto a series of newsletters. I recommend
downloading all of them and doing some reading to inderstand the basics (and
more) of Vegas.
