I am a little confused about the presets in compressor.
I have several projects that consists of 24P footage edited on a 29.97 timeline. I have about 3 24P projects that was edited in a 23.98 timeline with the pull down removed. Now in terms of presets in Compressor I am going to need to use MPEG-2 because my delivery will be DVD. I see a drop down menu of several options to choose from using MPEG-2. I see 120 min, 90 min, 60 min, etc., source encoders. I think my projects are no more than about 45 minutes in length so should I just choose the 60 minute one? Also for the 24P options, I don't see a MPEG-2 for it, just MPEG-4 and when I cursor over to the arrow I see more options like 24P progressive SMALL or 24P progressive LARGE. What is the difference between the small and large options and what is the best to use in terms of output to DVD?
