No but the sling box is better since they are viewing the actual streams you plan to put on disc.

Google “Slingbox”.
Allows your client to access your DVD Player over the net. Full screen controls….like they were at your office.
Greatest thing for clients reviews ever !!

LGs and Pioneers for me

Its well documented over the years in professional DVD production that auto-activated menus often trip up players….Ive seen it many times.. The reason why is because tools like Encore and DVDSP are abstraction layer programs which often contain very “round-about” programming methods. This makes the the player work extra hard while traveling in and out of the disc’s different menu domains.
Not a majority but enough to make me avoid such functionality. There’s a reason why you rarely see it used.
also 30-40% of consumers watch DVD on their computers some point…another huge reason why it shouldn’t be used.
The OP can do what they want but I think its fair they know the pitfalls

[Matt Townley] “There are plenty of other methods to distribute HD content, but all of them have pros and cons and compatibility limitations, not to mention varying degrees of simplicity (or lack there of) for the end user. A good solution to deliver HD content to a client should start with several questions about what they intend to do with it and the best solution will likely be different for each project.”
Thats a great comment!
Tons of ways to delivery content…..I was only referring to deliveries to a Blu Ray replicator

John was talking about sending a project for replication. Toast is fine for simple projects
I don’t see BD going anywhere anytime soon. Once the entire world is wired and we can reliably download and watch 1080 p video with decent bitrate, then maybe . That’s all years away though

It’s best to use Flash if you’d like to make a Flash project. Lots of bugs in Encore

I wish I had a dollar for all the professional Hollywood discs that have been poorly authored throughout the years. It does not work if you are intentionally causing player compatibility issues.
Do a search in the DVDSP forum for Layered Menus and the issues it causes. Basically the same auto activated set up…it really should be avoided but whatever. 🙂

Thats super clunky and will trip up many players….not to mention the issues that arise on a computer and a mouse 🙂
