Using the DVDxDV preferences
Audio Settings
Audio Export Precision
This setting allows you to specify the audio export precision as 24 bit or 16 bit. The 24 bit precision option will only create 24 bit sound files when the following conditions are met:
1. The native audio format must be able to support 24 bit audio, such as AC3. Otherwise, a 16 bit audio file will be created.
2. The audio must be extracted to a separate set of files. When extracting to a Quicktime Movie, the "export multi-channel audio to AIFF" must be selected.
Export multi-channel audio to AIFF
This setting must be selected in order to export a multi-channel sound track. Without this option selected, the multi-channel audio will be mixed down to two channels.
Video Settings

Detect Variable Frame Rate
For most DVDs this setting should be turned on.
Interlaced Field Order
This setting determines the output field order of the video created by DVDxDV. In most cases, this setting should be set to "Lower Field Dominant". The change in field ordering can adversely affect how a video looks on television monitor. Therefore, only change this setting if you know that the field order must be set a certain way.
Crop video to
This setting allows you specify the frame size of the video. This setting doesn't scale the video, but rather adds black letter boxing around the video. The video preview window doesn't display the changes. They are only visible when looking at the finished movie. This setting may affect the interlaced field ordering, so it isn't recommend to use this setting on material that is interlaced.
