Need something that goes fast and supports most files types. Easy to use is important.

Thanks

For dvd authoring? lol

Doubt it. Maybe for burning.

I picked up this 5 in 1 TMPGEng from SuprNova. Guess I gotta stick with that. Dont really like Adobe's or Pinnacle.

Goto http://www.doom9.org/ and checkout the quicklinks for "Spruce DVDMaestro" and "Scenarist NT." I don't think easy will apply to DVD authoring especially if you're going to design your own menus. Of course Scenarist NT will cost you $39,000 unless you find a pirated copy. :rolleyes:

I&#39;ve got Scenarist, and its not that good. It&#39;s too difficult to use and its quite old.

Its better to go for a more up-to-date and more user friendly authoring software. I use many.

One ones i prefer are Spruce up (which is discontinued i think, but highly recomend it) and dvd-lab pro.

Its better to use diferent authoring tools because some can have problems with a partcular file, but another could still use it.


Another i would recommend is neodvd plus. Although i don&#39;t use it that often.


For every day use i prefer dvd-lab pro

I write, direct, and film my own independent movies and this is what I use.

For editing : Cyberlink PowerDirector 3 [I&#39;ve tried most all of the consumer level movie editing programs: adobe premier, videostudio, etc., etc. and this is the best one I have found. I like it over premier because it has a better gui, better navigation, and doesn&#39;t tend to freeze as much with D1 quality video]

For authoriting (creating menus and such) : Ulead Dvd Workshop 2 [ this is by far the best dvd authoritor I&#39;ve found, and I&#39;ve used a lot including adobe encore, dvdit, nero, tmpgenc (forgot how to spell it).

Both these programs are on irc and suprnova. I reccomend you get it&#33;

Oh yeah, the computer I use to edit/author dvd&#39;s is

XP 2800+
Dedicated 120 GB Western Digital HD 8 Mb Cache
768 MB DDR 333 Ram
Nec 2500a Dvd+-RW ( i was thinking about applying the double layer firmware hack once the media is more widly avialable)
Windows XP Pro Sp1
