• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I have some HD footage taken from my Sony cam and have tried to put it on DVD. Its worked but the image results are poorer than the original HD footage. Does anyone know of any walkthroughs or hints that might guide me through the process.
Many thanks

iDVD does not produce HD video, only standard video is created. I'd play the DVD on your Mac at normal size and check the quality that way. If it is sharp than the job is done.
