We are aiming at creating the DVD versions by down converting the 1080p/24 master to 480p/24 and 576p/25 for

We are trying to get the DVD NTSC and PAL versions of DVE MPEG encoded. No one has ever encoded directly at 24P. Sarnoff has had the NTSC master since December and LSI has had the PAL master since then as well. They are just telling us now that they may not be able to do this.
The making of DVE has been an extremely painful experience as each part of the production has required that things that had never been done before correctly.
We had to build an editing computer to do 1080P 24 at realtime because none existed, even at Lucas Digital. Apple sold Joe, wouldn't rent, 2 machines that were incapable of doing the job before they finally made one that was. So in the end he bought three machines. Oh by the way, you must provide your own software, which also didn't exist. The drivers also didn't exist. Shall I go on? I better not or we will be moved to the rant section.
