Hmmmm....looking goood!

Version PRO 1.4 BETA 1

From now DVD-lab versions will be splitted to Standard and PRO. This is important because there are too many advanced additions planned that a normal user may find them too overwhelming. The PRO version will require a bit more knowledge about the DVD authoring and structure but it will allow you to create DVD structure as you require. During the beta-testing DVD-lab registerd users will have no time limit on the PRO version.

Both Normal & Pro
- Component system in Connection windows - you can group objects and use them as black box, you can also export/import such components
- Adobe Photoshop 6,7 export/import fixes
- Load Sub Picture now converts the subpicture to 4 Colors
- You can directly drag images and *.mnu files from explorer to menu
- Output folder is now saved with the project.
- Testing mpa audio frequency in PS mpg without demuxing throw error if not 48kHz.
- You can also drag link from Project to Connections Menus and it will behave as if you use Draw Button Links. Bit awkward but the option is there.
- Some changes in mpa testing, the large allocated buffer seems to caused some problems
- Rebuild All Transitions on one click
- Add Transition Tool in connection (Draw arrow from menu to menu)
- Test compile now replaces also slideshow. The dummy image is now dynamically generated with information about the movie.
- Fix for the case when two or more menus with 16:9 motion background would crash compiler.
- Choose type of Default (Empty) project or create your own default project.

Pro Version
- Added real VMG Menus. Now you will be able to build the full DVD hierarchy.
- Import second VTS (menus+movie(s)) directly from any previously compiled project (loading the VTS_xx_0.IFO). This is a great new way to build multiple VTS DVD by simply first building one normal single VTS project, testing it, then use the compiled result directly as a second VTS in a new project. This way will add flexibility to the whole authoring process where you won't need to touch or recompile already working part.
- Re-authoring: Import VOB files (via IFO) as whole without joining - part of the multi-VTS solution as described above. It allows you to easy directly import previously created project or whole VTS created in other authoring software so you no longer need to join vobs and recreate chapter, etc, all is imported from ifo.

http://www.mediachance.com/dvdlab/tutorial/keypad.html Here's a quote from this tutorial.

"At the time of this writing there is only a version 1.3 of DVD-lab and this has not yet component support build-in. Well, the future versions will have it so for having this article complete I will use the secret internal version of DVD-lab to get my screen captures."

"secret" internal version? :eek: I want that!

I have been using DVD Lab lately to backup just the main movie title, getting rid of all the extra's, including menus. Mainly because not as much transcoding has to be done to fit on a disc. DVD Lab combined with some of Medichance's other software like DVD Menu Studio http://www.mediachance.com/dvdmenu/index.html can give you all the menu options you could ever ask for.
