I am wondering the best way to export a timeline in Premiere 6.0 directly to a DVD. My DVD RW Drive came with Roxio DVD Builder. But it seems to use that, I would have to export the timeline first and then burn. My project is a little over an hour so it would be nice to go directly to the DVD.

Hi folks...just found this discussion and thought I'd add some of my own experience...fwiw...
I also prefer TMPGEnc for encoding (best quality I've found) and yes, it normally needs an uncompressed AVI (which I used to export from Premiere).
I have recently found a product/method called "frame serving". There are several products that perform this function as a Premiere plug-in. Basically, you "export" your timeline to this plug-in, then start up your TMPGEnc. The plug-in will literally "serve" each frame of your timeline from Premiere directly to TMPGEnc (hence the term "frame serving"). This completely eliminates the time (and disk space) req'd to export an uncompresssed AVI before encoding to MPEG. It does work...and very well!!
There are several products, but the one I like (and now use all the time) is called PluginPac FrameServer by debugmode.com
Give it a try...you'll like it
Rob
