Thanks for the responses. It's the first time I have used this forum and appreciate the help. I am learning FCP as I go on this project.
I tried DVDxDV trial version and maybe with settings wrong but it did not maintain the widescreen aspect ratio. Cinematize keeps the aspect ratio fine.
I have to rip the DVD's as they are comercial features I worked on and am just pulling clips off for a showreel.
I will try the export photoJPEG route with Cinematize. How do you deal with the Audio this way?
Is there good compiler software to view the clip in motion with Audio before importing to FCP?
Still curious why Quicktime video lags in Full Quality 4:2:2 exported codecs? It sems like the frames are being processed and can't keep up.
