Creating a DVD in IDVD

I'm trying make my first DVD with FC Express using IDVD. Please excuse my lack of technical expertise here. After I create the Quick Time Conversation of my project and view the preview of it in IDVD, the movie video portion, as oppose to the video stills included, has horizontal lines going through the video. Not the stills however. I get the same effect sometimes when viewing the video in the FC viewer when the viewer size is over 100%. The original video does not have this problem. I did not changed any of the existing parameters in FC prior to making the Quicktime Movie except for turning off the on-line streamer. The project was shot in 16x9. Hope this makes some sense. can someone please help me.
Thanks,
Ray

Not as familiar with FCE but it sounds like you are selecting 'Quicktime Conversion' under 'Export' to make your final output file for iDVD. That's the wrong choice, as it compresses the output file more than you need it to. You need to export a 'Quicktime Movie', which will be at the same resolution and settings as your sequence -- drop that file into iDVD and see how it looks. Then just burn a test DVD and make sure it plays OK on your TV.
