    Professional tools expect usually already encoded elementary streams. 😉
    For PC world I would suggest DVDlab.
    It also needs preencoded elementary streams, but it creates professional results.

    I agree 6 ch PCM on a DVD is a very uncommon case, but since it is part of the official DVD specification I simply tested it out. import works, 6 ch are recognized.

    Thanks for the intention to look into the helpfile! 😉
    I simply found that note from SONIC:
    “Although the DVD Specification supports up to 8 channels of PCM audio, currently, there are no DVD players that support multi-channel PCM.”
    That makes things very clear.

    Same by me, I never saw such! 😉
    It seems that will be the first one.

    Scenarist SD accepts 6 channel PCM audio at 24bit.
    Don’t find my spec books, but look at the wikipedia article:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-VIDEO#Audio_data

    Not sure what players do, but I would expect playback issues on some players.

    If really needed you can author 6ch PCM audio in Scenarist SD!

    I wouldn’t go with 5.1 PCM audio on DVD. That’s due to a huge consumption of space.
    Use DTS, that is well supported & is acoustically lossless.

  • Open the .rtf, copy the content from .rtf to an advanced text-editor (should be capable to encode to unicode text) or just save the .rtf as an .txt file (unicode) directly. Rename the .txt to .stl & open it up now with Subtitle Edit.

    This can be done together with DVD-Reauthor Pro & Scenarist SD.
    DVD-Reauthor Pro de-compiles the disc & creates a Scenarist project file if the disc is according to the spec.
    The assets can be exchanged or removed then in Scenarist.

    I do not see a proper solution together with DVD-Studio Pro since it’s a abstraction layer tool.

  • Since Resolve uses its own QT interface, it’s up to Blackmagic to support third party codecs.

    Deinterlaced footage doesn’t look good ususally.
    Blended fields are not really what you want! 😉
    But you should test to determine what works for you.

    Not sure if your NLE supports this but you could try this,
    1. create a 29.97i timeline & place the 25i clip
    2. you should be able to define if the clip should match the target frame rate either by “blending” or by “nearest neighbourhood” method.
    3. use “frame/field blending” & export a clip
    4. use “nearest neighbourhood” & export a second clip

    Compare both clips!

    If you are not happy with the result try if the deinterlaced footage does work with my previously mentioned method.
    It’s not easy to find an ideal method.
