very tightly integrated with PhotoShop. Easily switch back and forth for editing your menus/buttons. Haven't used it a lot yet but I've not experienced the glitches others have.

I've used it pretty extensively and I can say it's the buggiest Adobe product I've ever used. Take for instance last night. I tried to burn a project to a dvd. I had burned this project before, and it went fine, though last night it refused to work. It came up with an error message when I hit "build". I restarted the computer today and it burned fine, using the same exact dvd. Then there's also the time where I spent about 50 minutes going through footage and chapter marking it. Encore crashed. So I had to do it over. It crashes often, but I think most of the time when I try to preview the dvd. (always save before ya do that) As far as the photoshop integration, it's basic. It could have used a lot more work. It's counter productive to have to meticulously label all of your layers in photoshop with dumb signs like (=1) and (+), etc. It also will only work with Photoshop 7. I really wish you could set which layers do what (like buttons, highlights, etc) in Encore. All you can do in Encore is see the layers. |

Adobe Encore DVD and 5.1 surround
hello everyone,
I posted this in Adobe Forum, but no reply yet. I have the Adobe Video Collection (Premiere PRo, After Effects 6, Audition, and Encore DVD). I work with video in Premiere, and audio in Audition (to make 5.1 surround). when exporting from audition, I have the choice between: - exporting as 6 different mono waves. - or exporting as 1 wave (5.1). If I export as 6 waves, then I have to import them to Premiere, then export them as AC3 file, to burn on DVD (Encore doesn't accept 6 wave files). But I can do this only 3 times, then I have to buy the AC3 encoder. If I export as 1 wave file (from Audition), then I can use it right away in Encore DVD. My question is: Am I safe to use the 1 wave file to make 5.1 surround in Encore DVD? Will it be perfect 5.1 with no problems? The problem is I can't do tests right now. so your answer is really appreciated. |

I might be about to learn something here, but I have never seen reference to surround sound that didn't include AC3. If you're asking whether there is a free alternative to creating AC3 surround sound I don't think so. There would be no market for the royalty for AC3 functionality if you could have your cake and eat it too.

I don't on AVID. Sorry. But since DVD requires DVD compliant
MPEG2 and your AVID can encode that, just do that. Otherwise you will have to find a common fileformat that Encore can encode (if it has an mpeg2 encoder onboard) or use a third party program to do the mpeg2 encoding.

Actually, Encore and Squeeze both use Mainconcept's Mepg encoder. Encore will not re-encode if the clip is already in mpeg2 format.
So you can either encode with Squeeze then import it into Encore, or just import the clip as QT ref and encode before you make the DVD. |
