DVD Author GUI 0.5

[Amnon82]

Some here still waiting for Nic's new ReJig including the new DVDAuthor. Also in old germany a guy called borax is coding his little apps. His new Baby is DVD AUTHOR GUI.

There are two versions: the german one and the english one for the rest of the world. This GUI is still in beta stadium. Ergo not all features are inplented now. When it goes to final, it will be one of the best Freeware DVD Author.

History

Version 0.5 includes the following bugfixes/new functions:
- New dialog for the menu background (right-click). Here an audio file can be inserted -> menus with sound.
In addition the output directory is used as default for the 'open image' dialog.
- In case you use Windows in 'HighColor (16 bit colors)' mode, Frame - type buttons did not work - > fixed
- Frame - type buttons can be rounded.
- Graphic buttons can be created by default. The necessary pictures should be created and inserted before;
afterwards drag & drop the MPEG files directly on the appropriate image.
- In Nero there was an error if no titlesets were used, since no VTS_01_0.VOB file was present.
- > an empty (black) picture is created, so that Nero is content (you will never see this picture anyway...)
- If no titlesets are used, you can select that the next film is played directly (without return in the main menu)
- The picture added last (or free text) can be deleted from the context menu (right-click).
- The default text for the (automatically created) 'back - button' in titleset menus can be selected.
- For MP2 audio files additional information (bit rate, duration...) is shown.
- Improved algorithm for the calculation of the multiplex overhead for elementary video (and audio) streams.
- In case the prior used output directory has been deleted, the next higher level directory is used by default (except the next higher level is the root directory)
