Hello,

I recently edited together an animation demo reel that I created 100% for internet playback. All the maya scenes are animated at 30fps ( yep.. im in games ).

I rendered all the frames at half 720p, so 640 x 360

I have the edit in Premiere Pro, set to 30fps, with frames rendered as single TGA files, and I have the full audio mix sequenced and working at this frame rate.

now of course... a little unexpectedly....I have a studio that wants to see all work submitted on NTSC DVD... ;)

my question is this:

If I have all this in Premiere at 30fps... what will happen to the sync of my audio mix when I try and burn this to a DVD ? and what will happen to the slight difference in frame rate ? will the dvd burner simply slow down the audio to make it fit, and drop a frame every now and again to compensate for the fps ? ( i ideally would like to just use Premiere's "export to DVD" functionality to do all the burning and conversion )

I understand I will most likely need to re-render my frames at 720 x 480... I am not too bothered about re-rendering ( although I would still like to keep all animations rendered out at 30fps )
