Export in mpeg2

[Honorius]

This is not a premiere pro problem per se I guess, but I have trouble exporting my movie to a mpeg2 format.

I use adobe encoder (that i got with adobe premiere pro CS4) and can't for the life of me put my movie on DVD. Adobe media encoder doesn't give me the option to export my movie as a mpeg2 file.

I have .avi .flv .mxf .aac .wave .mp4 .mp4v .wmv etc. But no mpeg2.

I tried some converter (avi to mpeg2) but no luck as they freaking convert the movie in 4:3 instead of keeping it in 16:9.

Anything I can do here? A better converter maybe?

It should. If the option doesn't show up then there's something wrong with that copy of the program.

Then there is something wrong. Mpeg2 is definately not there.

It might be because I'm using the trial version. I'll look for a fix...

I believe MainConcept provides the MPEG-2 implementation for Premiere and Adobe couldn't license them for just the trial version of the software. The full version will have it.

Is there an alternative?
