Re: OT: Need some DVD advice
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2006
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 67384
interpreted = N
texte = I can do either one. The source stuff is on Mac, but there aren't too many scriptable options. DVD Studio Pro is not Apple-Scriptable. iDVD is, but it can't import m2v/ac3 files. Instead, it imports QuickTime, which it then has to re-compress to m2v/ac3. That means that all video on every order will have to go through the same, stupid recompression. Toast Titanium offers basic scripting which doesn't allow customizing of menus and will only so a dingle level menu structure. Might be better options on Windoze or Linux Pat On Jun 2, 2006, at 8:32 AM, Steve Craig wrote: > Are you on Mac or PC? > ======================================== > Steve Craig - Asylum Interactive Ltd > Tel +44 1330 860550 Fax +44 1330 860880 > ======================================== > http://www.asylumweb.com > Email: steve@asylumweb.com > Skype: s.craig - iChat: steve.craig > ======================================== > > > > On 2 Jun 2006, at 14:08, Pat McCormick wrote: > >> I have a bunch of training video clips ranging from 30 sec to >> about 8 minutes, compressed to m2v for video and ac3 for audio, >> which makes them ready for burning on DVDs. >> >> I have a website that tests users.
