VideoStudio :: Convert MOV File To MPG For Editing And To Make DVD

I'm having a problem using a video file created in FInal Cut. A friend of mine made a movie that I need to use to either edit or more importantly just create a DVD with in VIdeo Studio. I had him convert the MOV file to MPEG 2 The file, both video and audio, plays perfectly in Windows Media Player, but when you bring it into Corel it doesn't see any audio.

The SAME MPG file shows these properties in Corel
FILE
File Format - MPEG-2
File Size - 1.1179,411kb
Duration: 685.152 seconds

VIDEO
Video Type MPEG-2Video, Lower Field First
Total Frames: 20, 534 fames(s)
Attributes: 24 bits, 720x480, 16:9
Frame Rate: 29.97 frames/sec
Data rate: Variable bit rate ( max 20000 kbps)

AUDIO

AND these properties in Windows Media Player
Length 11:25
Bit Rate -
Media Type - Video
Aspect Ratio - 16x9
Audio Codec - MPEG audio Decoder
Video Codec - Intervideo Video Decoder

So clearly you see that Windows can recognize the audio component that Corel does not see

As an alternative I had him give me the uncompressed MOV file. That file had these properties as shown in Corel ( right clicked file in Corel)

When I took the MOV file into VS X4 --- it worked fine on the time line. I then wanted to burn a DVD. I selected File, New, Share, Create DVD, added the media to the project, for disc template manager, I chose best mpeg 2 lpcm, for MPEG properties for file conversion I customized the settings to Encoder driver - Ulead MPEG NOW encoder, frame type lower field first, 720 x 480, 16:9, I brought the quality under media type up to 100%, video data rate 8000, variable, and the audo to LPCM.... The DVD burned but the file LOST a lot of quality,.... even played with less quality on preview as soon as you brought it into the CREATE DVD window.

Whether the properties use to convert MOV to MPG were correct? Why Corel doesn't see the audio on that file and windows does? Creating DVDs from MOV files? Did I set the DVD up correctly? Interestingly.... he created a DVD for me, and I could "rip" the file into Corel and it created a perfect MPG that was 1/3 of the size of the original mpg he gave me. Also, Windows DVD maker, a basic program read the MPEG he created and burned a perfect DVD with AUDIO and VIDEO that Corel could not.
