Hi specialists!
I´ve successfully compressed my film (shot on DV and 16mm, edited on FCP, de-interlaced with flicker-filter max) with Compressor and put on DVD. I used very good quality, as the film is only 60 minutes.
Generally I´m very happy with the quality. Only at passages with shaky handcamera the image gets even shakier when compressed. First I thought that is a problem of wrong field-order. But I checked that everything is on "even" (the FCP-sequence and the setting in compressor). Is it normal, that because of the compression and this estimating of movement that the compressor uses, there appear problems when there is too much movement?

Another thing that happens is that sometimes I didn´t cut out the white film-flashes (when the film-camera stops) in the final film, - I like that effect. What happenes is that also here the picture doesn´t get successfully brighter (as when played out of the computer, or on tape), but it kind of flickers a bit on DVD (don´t know the exact word in english, sorry).
Is this also normal - that the compressor is simply not used to such dramatic changes in brightness? And is this also happening when you make fade outs?

Thanks very much!!!
