Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Completely redesigned to simplify DVD authoring, DVD Studio Pro gives you unprecedented creative control over the design process. The customizable workspace, integrated menu editor, timeline-based track editor, and professional encoding capabilities provide a flexible and full-featured solution for today's video professional.

DVD Studio Pro offers:

Creative independence
Design entire DVDs without leaving the application. Start with professionally designed templates that can be customized using buttons, styles, drop zones, and other elements. Or build your own menus from scratch using assets from your library and save them as templates to share with others.

Smart, intuitive workflow
Context-sensitive drop palettes make it easy for you to design your project by displaying the options you have for each asset as you place on your menus. With the timeline-based track editor, you can manage up to nine video angles, eight audio streams, and 32 subtitle streams in one location.

Power for professionals
The MPEG-2 encoder offers 2-pass VBR encoding to maximize the amount of video stored on a DVD without compromising quality. Additional features such as scripting, stories, region coding, GPRM access, and pre-mastering options give you even more professional-level control over your project. DVD Studio Pro even includes a Dolby-certified AC-3 encoder for top-quality audio.

This review is from: Apple DVD Studio Pro 2 (CD-ROM)

DVD Studio Pro 2 does not work. It quits seconds after is launched. I was told that this version (2.0.0) does not work on Intel based computers. I own a Macbook Pro purchased from Amazon in 2008. Apple does not offer an update to version 4.1.
