                             WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549

                                 SCHEDULE 13D/A
                               (AMENDMENT NO. 5)

                                  STATEMENT OF

                           LIBERTY MEDIA CORPORATION

        PURSUANT TO SECTION 13(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

                                 IN RESPECT OF

    LIBERTY LIVEWIRE CORPORATION (FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE TODD-AO CORPORATION)

ITEM 1.       SECURITY AND ISSUER.

         Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Liberty" or the
"Reporting Person"), is filing this Statement on Schedule 13D/A (this
"Statement") with respect to shares (the "Shares") of the Class A Common Stock,
par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), of Liberty Livewire
Corporation (formerly known as The Todd-AO Corporation), a Delaware corporation
(the "Issuer"). The Issuer's principal executive offices are located at 520
Broadway, Suite 500, Santa Monica, California 90401.

         This Statement is being filed by the Reporting Person solely for the
purpose of updating certain information reported in the Schedule 13D/A filed by
the Reporting Person on August 3, 2000 (the "Fourth Schedule 13D"), which is
incorporated herein by reference. All capitalized terms used herein but not
defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Fourth Schedule
13D.

         The Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into the Stock Option
Fulfillment Agreement, dated as of June 10, 2000 (the "Stock Option Fulfillment
Agreement"), as more fully described in Item 6.


ITEM 3.       SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS.

         The Reporting Person intends to fulfill its obligations under the
Stock Option Fulfillment Agreement through working capital. An estimate of the
amount of funds is also provided in Item 6.


ITEM 4.       PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         The Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into the Stock Option
Fulfillment Agreement, as more fully discussed in Item 6, so that the Reporting
Person could provide funds

                                     3 of 7

<PAGE>   4

to the Issuer so that the Issuer could meet its obligations to acquire and
deliver shares of AT&T's Class A Liberty Media Group Common Stock, par value
$1.00 per share ("Class A Liberty Group Stock"), to the holders of the Rollover
Options (as defined below).

ITEM 5.       INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         The interest that the Reporting Person has in the Issuer has changed
since August 3, 2000, the date of the Fourth Schedule 13D, due to the recent
utilization by the Issuer of its rights under the Stock Option Fulfillment
Agreement. Pursuant to the Stock Option Fulfillment Agreement, the Reporting
Person has acquired an additional 271,271 shares of the Issuer's Class B Common
Stock by the end of September 2000. The Reporting Person's complete interest in
the securities of the Issuer is set forth on the first page of this Statement.


ITEM 6.       CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

         Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 10,
1999, as amended (the "Merger Agreement"), among AT&T, Merger Sub, the
Reporting Person and the Issuer, the Issuer's stock options were rolled over,
on June 9, 2000, into options (the "Rollover Options") exercisable for shares
of Class A Liberty Group Stock and the Issuer's Class A Common Stock. The
Rollover Options are the obligations of the Issuer; however, the Merger
Agreement specified that the Reporting Person would assist in helping the
Issuer obtain shares of Class A Liberty Group Stock to fulfill the Issuer's
obligations under the Rollover Options.

         The Issuer and the Reporting Person entered into the Stock Option
Fulfillment Agreement, pursuant to which the Reporting Person agreed to give
the Issuer cash, if requested by the Issuer, so that the Issuer could acquire
shares of Class A Liberty Stock to meet its obligations under the Rollover
Options. In exchange for such cash, the Issuer agreed to issue to the Reporting
Person 1.2 shares of its Class B Common Stock for each share of Class A Liberty
Group Stock delivered to the optionholders. Pursuant to the Stock Option
Fulfillment Agreement, the Reporting Person can acquire up to a maximum of
509,635 shares of the Issuer's Class B Common Stock.

         If the Reporting Person acquires this maximum number of shares under
the Stock Option Fulfillment Agreement, the total number of the Issuer's Class B
Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person would be 31,826,312, which, based on
information provided by the Issuer to the Reporting Person, would constitute
approximately     % of the Issuer's voting power as of the end of September
2000. In addition, if the Issuer agrees to fulfill all of its obligations under
the Rollover Options by obtaining cash from the Reporting Person, then the
Reporting Person would provide the Issuer with approximately $10,141,737 (based
on the average closing price of Class A Liberty Group Stock during the month of
September 2000).

         The First Schedule 13D was supplemented and amended by the Second
Schedule 13D, the Third Schedule 13D and the Fourth Schedule 13D, which in turn
is being supplemented and amended by this Amendment No. 5.  The information
provided in this Amendment No. 5 is only as of October 31, 2000, the date of
the filing of this Amendment No. 5.  This Amendment No.
