I am in a bind - got a big production for sports team in two days...I have rendered varsity movie and sent to dvd architect. now trying to insert two mpeg movies (JV/Freshman) to menu b/4 burning and they are not previewing correctly. The menu looks perfect, so I preview and the Varsity video is full screen and looks fine, both the other (mpeg) look very small. Then when I prepare it has warning that mpeg both video and audio need to be compressed. I have burned a few copies anyway and they do not play. I have saved both JV & F movies in both mpeg2 and wmv. Any suggestions?

make them all mpeg-2 with the DVDA template. should work great.

I'm not quite sure what you mean...go to dvda first and then just import all of them separately and build the menu based movie from there? I was going from SVMS in the varsity movie, then saying make movie which took me to dvda with the varsity already on it, then adding the others.

I normally edit & render everything out, then put the DVD together. But you're using DVDA Studio? I'm not sure what's different between that one & the pro version, so there could be something I'm missing.
