Well, first off, I would dump steps 5 and 6 and just export the movie straight to AVI, instead of dumping to tape, then re-capturing. That should save you quite a bit of time right there. I'm not working in 16:9 just yet, so I have no other suggestions to help you out.

I have video footage recorded at 16:9 widescreen camera setting. I would like to create DVD maintaining the 16:9 aspect ratio. I have found a round about way to do this, and would appreciate if anyone has tips to do this in less and simple steps - I am on windows. The steps I found so far to be working are as follows: 1. Captured video footage in a new project - chose D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2) for Pixel Aspect Ratio in the Project Settings dialog box. 2. Edited and exported the movie as AVI choosing D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2) for the Pixel Aspect Ratio. 3. Created a new project in Premiere, this time selected a DV-NTSC Standard (4:3 aspect ratio) for the Project Settings. 4. Imported the movie created in step 2, placed it in the Timeline, chose Clip > Video Options > Maintain Aspect Ratio. Rendered the movie. 5. Exported the movie by choosing File > Export movie > Export to tape. 6. Captured this movie/footage in a new project in premiere - choosing NTSC standard 4:3 aspect ratio. 7. Exported movie as AVI using 4:3. 8. Used this AVI to create DVD. This is such a lengthy process and very time consuming. Would appreciate suggestions to achieve the following in quicker time. A) Export widescreen 16:9 footage on tape (mini DV) back, with same aspect ratio and B) Create DVD from widescreen 16:9 footage, maintaining the aspect ratio. Thanks.
