Haven't done this before, not sure if its automatic or if it will fall off when I make DVDs or Blu-Rays

Fall off?
Just encode to MPEG as BFF (DV sources) or TFF (everything else), author the BD/DVD without re-encoding, and it will be fine.

Thanks, it should be all TFF then. I didn't really know if certain conversions made reading interlaced lines impossible for the playback hardware.

Good encoders should let you specify interlaced vs progressive encoding. What are you using to encode?

I haven't decided yet. I prefer not to deinterlace so I am rummaging the forums to find a good encoder to do this.

- Avidemux = free but buggy
- TMPGEnc Plus 2.5 = cheap ($37) but slower to encode
- MainConcept Reference (now TotalCode Studio) = expensive ($500+) but best in the industry.
There's not a lot of choices for MPEG encoders. I use them all, dependig on the computer and the task.

Are these all for VirtualDub or do I need Adobe to use them?

They're standalone programs.
Adobe Premiere comes with the MainConcept SDK encoder (the "Adobe Media Encoder")
VirtualDub only exports AVI.

I looked up MainConcept but the max bitrate looks like 16mbits while broadcast quality is actually higher than that (18ish?). What bitrate is a good number for archival? I can save videos up to 20GB each.

Are you using a template? If so, which one?
The MPEG-2 MP@HL is 100 Mbps.
DVD-Video is max 9.8 (or 10.08) Mbps. It doesn't go to 16 anyway
Blu-ray MPEG-2 is 15 Mbps.
So not sure what you're referring to.

Note that video is 1000, not 1024 base.

I ended up not being happy with the quality outside of cartoons with what I was getting. Because my size allowance is so big, I ended up muxing to Lagarith instead for smaller sizes with same quality. I wanted Huffyuv but it was giving me grief.
