fastest way from DV to DVD? - ULEAD?

[wiggo]

I'm bringing video/audio in DV format in via firewire.

I'm presently using ULead Video Studio 7 to capture and then transform DV to DVD format and burn.

Now here is the question. Is there any faster way to do this?

I'm running a P4 2.7Gig machine, with one of the fastest drives u can buy, but it still takes 3+ hours for Ulead to transform 2 hour clip.

I did a 2 hour video clip project last night and after 3 hours I went to bed. It was still in the converting video stage. I'm not sure how long it took, but it was done in the morning.


Is this a normal amount of time to transform DV to DVD?

This is killing me. There has to be a better way.
