Best of all, I like the price: free * grin *

I really have no need for either of those features, but that just sort of drives home what’s great about DVD Architect. DVDA was one of the first ones to support blu-ray, obviously for Sony’s self-interest, and since then there really hasn’t been a lot that needs to be added to a program like DVD Architect, just minor tweaks and bug fixes, a few new stock background images thrown in. I’ve put it on all sorts of desktops and laptops over the years and it has handled everything like a trooper. Even when Premiere/Encore are going nuts over not seeing a drive or whatever they get fidgety about, I know I can always drag the files into DVDA and everything just works. Congrats on another new version DVDA, even if I don’t need it.

Although i only use Architect for bluray burning, im glad
they haven’t left it at the wayside.

Great to see DVD Architect get 3D Blu-ray support. I’m sure those working in 3D will be extremely happy that they have this as a delivery vehicle. As for me, I use DVD Architect for all of my DVD authoring (still not much client demand for Blu-ray) and it’s simple to use and just works.

It will be great to see if DVDA allows you to control the burn speed and/or use multiple burners. Currently I author in DVDA and burn in Nero.

True, not that much request for Blu-ray. Boy, its amazing to see
all the fuss over 3D, 2K and 4K technology and how feverish its
being pushed, and the world haven’t even yet fully integrated HD…lol

That’s a perfectly fine workflow. IMHO authoring software should be good at authoring the master image. There are plenty of burning programs to handle multiple burners, etc. I use DVD Architect to create my master ISO file and then the Premiera PT Publisher to burn multiple copies with my Bravo II robot.

I would warn against having Nero on a video editing workstation. I had it seriously mess up my video software because it insists on inserting it’s own DirectX video filters even when you tell it not to install them. I would never use Nero again. Way too invasive. If you start having problems with video files not be read properly, that’s the first piece of software I would uninstall and see if it corrects the problem.

Yea, it’s great that the industry is pushing the boundaries, but I agree… the public just went out and bought HD TV’s. I don’t think they are ready for another format change.

I use DVDA to author but use ImgBurn to do my burning.
It’s free and is a great app.
