Alright folks... I've compiled this 30minute video for my friends' wedding in Adobe Premiere Pro.

Now, I've learned to use the software as I was chugging along but I'm not too familiar with the rendering and exporting options. So before I lose many hours I figured I'd ask here quickly first:

1) I guess it's better to render the movie before I export it - do I have to render it in HD even if I most likely intend to export it in DVD quality?

2) Are there any important settings I have to be careful about when rendering and exporting?

3) Any other advice before I launch the thing?

4) Do I have to render the audio separately as well?

Cheers!

It's been a few years since I have used Premiere (just use Final Cut now), but it should render it in whatever format you selected when you created the project. Do you know what that is?

Yep, I selected a HD format, thinking it's always better to render high def so you got the choice to then export hi- or low-def.

Last night I rendered and then exported it to MPEG2-DVD format... unfortunately it exported video and audio to 2 separate files [no]... So I need to do it again tonight using multiplexing and something else than PCM as audio.

Any suggestion as what would be the best to export to a DVD?
