Choosing the Right DVD Authoring Software
There are a variety of DVD authoring software options available today, and there will likely be even more of them in the future. While some might be low-cost, "easy-to-use," or bundled with another program you've purchased, there are definite differences in the capabilities of each program, which can seriously affect the functionality of the disc if you choose to have it replicated. For professional quality authoring, we recommend using the following software products to ensure your program is created "replication ready":
Apple:
DVD Studio Pro 3 and higher
Compressor 2 or higher
Adobe:
Encore 2 or higher
Sonic:
DVD Producer 5 or higher
Scenarist (any version)
DVDit
Ulead:
DVD Workshop 2
Sony:
DVD Architect
When a DVD master fails in the pre-mastering testing process, it usually can be traced to the version or format of software used to author the content. If you are authoring a program yourself, we recommend using one of the products mentioned above. Of course, having your content encoded and authored by Great Lakes Media Technology will ensure that there are no issues with your master when it goes into production. Call us with any questions on how we can help you with your authoring project.
