Exporting from Avid Newscutter for DVD production. (PLEASE HELP!)


I'm using Avid Newscutter for producing short films at work for internet
video ( www.scotlandontv.tv ), and occasionally I need to produce a DVD.

I have got DVD Lab, which I also use at home with FCP.
Using Compressor, (an exporting tool added onto FCP), I export films direct
to AC3 and M2V format, which works perfectly with DVD Lab.

However on the Avid News cutter, I can't export as M2V and AC3.

What would be the best way to do it?

My *workaround* is to export to a high quality format, (say AVI,
Uncompressed with 48K Sound), and use SUPER to convert it into a VOB file,
which will then import directly into DVDLab...

As it's at work, I can't change Avid for FCP, and I've just persuaded my
boss to invest in £100 for DVD Lab, so I can't use another authoring
package...

Please email any suggestions as to a quicker way TO ME AT:


Thanks!
