Typically the easiest way is to load the wmv file into a video editor (like Sony Vegas Pro) and doing two renders:

1) Then first, render it as an AC3 file for the Audio (to be DVD compliant)

2) then render it as an mpeg2 file for the Video (to be DVD compliant).

Then when loading it into DVD Architect, select the AC3 file for the audio and the mpeg2 file for the video.

Hope this helps!

From personal experience, I found the Roxio Easy Media Creator suite the easiest to start off with and learn.

Once learning those tools, I advanced up to Sony Vegas Pro and DVD Architect Pro.

For video editing I tried Adobe Premiere Elements, Adobe Premiere CS5, Cyberlink PowerDirector (my second favorite), Corel, and a few others.

I love Sony Vegas Pro the most as I found it the easiest, most flexible, can handle anything I throw at it, and (most importantly) doesn’t crash (the users on Amazon.com complaining about the Adobe products crashing weren’t kidding!).

Hope this helps!

You have a couple of options:

1) You can download a PDF document, such as this one and read through it:

2) You can always go to YouTube and do a search for Architect Pro Tutorial. You’ll get a listing back. Here’s a few videos to get you started:

What I’ve done (without having any multi-camera view projects) is:
1) Create a menu based project first

2) within a menu (or submenu) create a play list. In the play list you can put the videos/audios in any order you wish. You can also select to have them play sequentially or randomly. After play is complete, you can direct it where to go (eg, where to return to).

3) The link to the play list will be your “play all” button.

4) If you want to play things individually, you have a few options on how to lay them out. What I’ve always done is listed audio tracks separately on their own page so a user can click on them and then they’ll play. NOTE that when you add an audio link, you’ll receive warnings under the disc optimization menu that the video isn’t optimized. What I’ve done (which seems to work well) is in Vegas create an mpeg2 file first by inserting the mp3 song, then creating a still video track with the title/author of the tune, stretching it to the length of the audio. Render the video. Badda bing, badda boom. You now have a video that’s good for your DVD audio track.

Hope this helps!
