Look no further. We use this device alot. It hooks up to our player in California and anyone in the world can view their disc over a net connection. They have to install the software from thier computer. Has an on screen dvd remote as well..very cool stuff!

Each state in layered menus are really seperate menus. When you toggle between states the player’s laser must refocus to a new portion of the disc. Have you noticed the functionality is slower than most DVDs? Using a mouse to toggle these states is not good. The laser just isn’t fast enough to keep up. Don’t use layered menus unless you really must. Some players will have problems with them.

That list still stands. The HD DVD title is for distribution.

It’s impossible at this point who will win this. Its also possible no one will win. Product like Encore and DVDSP will give you a Blu-Ray or HD DVD disc but it won’t include any of the advanced interactivity like the stuff you see from the studios – just a simple menu.
Here’s comprehensive list of authoring tools:

Authoring a HD DVD(Advanced Content) or a BD-J title is more programming than authoring really. On the HD DVD side Playlists, Manifest and Markup, ACA files needs to be written by hand then muxed in something like Scenarist. Needless to say it’s needs to be in the hands of experienced coders – it will probably be this way for sometime until the tools mature.
Not sure if Encore will work in Playstation – try it out and see.
I work for a small company and can say that we’ve been working on a HD DVD (AC) title and it’s been issue after issue but hopefully the pains will be worth it in the end.
BD-J is a whole new ballgame for sure. HD DVD is based on the current SD DVD spec so the jump is not as great but I guess Sony has decided they want to make something totally new. They came up with something really cool but, IMO, the time, and expense to create a BD-J just may hurt them in the end – Most DVD design and authoring companies are not the movie studios – do you hear me talking Sony? 🙂
A client of ours recently recieved a quote to author a BD-J title – Hope your sitting down –
$70,000 – $100,000 !!!

No authoring tool with allow continuous audio with layered menus. This is a DVD spec limitation unfortunately .

You should be able to set your in and out points of that VOB file them demux to MPEG2 – no loss of quality.

Just burn the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders on the disc with any burnig program. Make sure it’s a data disc UDF.

Drop you video into a track and set your First Play to that track. Did you read the manual? This always helps.
Good Luck

You mistakenly made another language and it matches the one you already have set(English). Look in your Outline towards the bottom and delete “English-1” and Re-build.
