A must have feature for the creation of WinDVD and WebDVD titles. * Write directly to all DVD R and RW recorders, to most CD R and RW recorders and to all DLT tape drives. Use CD R/RW to create miniDVDs. Use DLT to transport titles to mass replication plants. By default all compiled titles are written to hard disk thus allowing use of DVD emulator software on the PC (such as WinDVD) for title testing. Content File Methodology * A true measure of an authoring tool is the degree of diversity of supported content file formats and types, a comfortable subject area for ViaDVD. * Graphic and photographic image files are used in DVD titles for still image displays stills with audio, slide shows with or without audio and as background display screens on menus. ViaDVD supports all industry standard file formats and automatically does format conversion where necessary. Image files are transcoded to DVDVideo MPEG2 file format automatically using a proprietary transcoder that delivers still image quality equaling that of the original image file. The most commonly used file types for DVD authoring includes BMP, JPG, GIF, PCD and TIF with many other optional formats supported as well but less frequently used. For best results image files will have a resolution of 720 by 480 (by 576 if PAL) using 24 or 32 bits per pixel. Any other resolution and color depth can be used as ViaDVD automatically converts to the required DVD format. * DVD ready MPEG2 video files (elementary streams) are supported and provide very good titling results. These files are typically created using 3rd party MPEG encoder equipment or software encoders. ViaDVD value checks the input files to verify compatibility with DVDVideo. * MPEG1 and MPEG2 video files non-conforming to DVD are accepted and transcoded to DVD compliant format. * MPEG1 and 2 audio files are used as is if conforming to DVD parameter set and are automatically transcoded to compliant format if not compatible in original form. * PCM (WAV) files are used unmodified if compatible with DVD or automatically transcoded to DVD format if necessary. Those in the quality conscious audiophile community take notice; ViaDVD is the only tool in its price range to support both 48K and 96K sample rate PCM audio files for input to DVD. * Dolby AC3 files in all legal configurations, including 5.1 (6 channel) surround sound, are supported. *I mporting existing DVDVideo VOB files provides one of the quickest ways of turning existing DVD content into new DVD titles. * Use AVI and Quick Time movie files no matter what format or frame rate. Automatic transcoding handles all conversion requirements to compliant DVD VOB format.
