Uncompressed DVD

   I have a customer who is asking for an "Uncompressed DVD" of his video. I have never heard of such a thing, but I am still fairly new. It would seem to me that the Original Mini DV tape and possibly the .avi file are the only uncompressed copies. I could burn him a copy of the .avi, but it wouldn't be a DVD. Am I wrong or is there a way to burn an uncompressed DVD?
   
   STATS:
   System and programs, Premiere 6.5, DVDit PE, on a Sony computer with a Windows XP operating system.
   
   Settings: NTSC MEPG-2, Video - bitrate 6000, audio - 35.
   
   Thanks in advance

   Since the term DVD describes both a storage medium and a movie format you want to know how he's using the term. Perhaps he just wants an archive of the original work, burned to DVD like you'd save it to a hard drive. Won't get many minutes on the disk but it's an option. To my knowledge there is no uncompressed DVD playable in a set top box. The DVD spec requires MPEG-2 video and by definition it's compressed.

   if you encode at about 8.5 mbps or higher he won't notice any compression. Make sure you don't go higher than 9.4 or you'll have problems due to the limitations of the DVD spec.
