Thanks for the update.
It looks like iDVD support will direct your choices. But, for best quality, I would suggest that you stay with H.264.mov or AVCHD.mp4 when you are dealing with iDVD in that Mac computer environment.
If you take your Premiere Elements Timeline and burn it to DVD, what is the burn time for the burn to disc DVD?
If you take that same Premiere Elements Timeline, export it to file H.264.mov (1920 x 1080 @ 25 progressive frames per second), take that file into iDVD, what is the burn time for burn to disc DVD?
I ask those questions to try to determine if the burn time is being influenced by
a. complexity of the content
versus
b. the burn software that iDVD uses
I am assuming that you would be using the same burner and same DVD write speed in each case.
Please let us know if I have targeted your question. If not, please supply more details, and I will think about this some more.
Thank you.
