Introduction
The DVD-lab PRO is the next step in DVD authoring
for advanced users who need an accessible and easy
to learn tool with the full range of DVD features.
Most of the existing tools are either very
expensive and hard to master or are limited in
their implementation of the DVD-Video
specifications. Many tools that are marketed as
"advanced" or for "professional" use are often
actually only more expensive consumer applications
with pre-cooked DVD structure and questionable user
interface.
DVD-lab PRO is based on the idea of original
DVD-lab. Instead of insulting the users with an
overdone flashy interface, DVD-lab and DVD-lab PRO
put strong emphasis on the usability of it. The
Modern Windows GUI can be tweaked and reorganized
to everybody's taste even across multiple monitors.
DVD-lab is also one of the very few applications on
the market that grows with your requirements and
knowledge. Users of other applications usually
either outgrow them very soon or they need to study
a long time before they are able to create even
simple project. We put a lot of effort to the
DVD-lab PRO so it offers benefits of both worlds.
It is easy to start making simple DVDs but it
doesn't stop there. As you continue to master the
craft you will realize that DVD-lab PRO offers an
unlimited range of design flexibility and delivers
the goods even for most demanding designers.
Flexible DVD structure
DVD-lab PRO is a full Multiple-VTS application,
that means you can put different aspect ratios or
movies with different audio channels on one DVD.
But unlike other Multi-VTS applications in this
category, DVD-lab PRO does not force you to use any
predefined DVD structure. Each Video Title Set can
be as complex or as simple as you want. The full
flexibility of creating the DVD structure is one of
the strongest point of DVD-lab PRO.
Multiple Audio and Subtitle Channels
Each title in DVD-lab PRO can have up to 8 audio
channels: AC3, MPA, LPCM or DTS and also number of
subtitle streams. You have the ability to add 8
subtitle channels, these can be created within
DVD-lab or imported using popular formats. You can
use customized graphic subtitles (imported from
bitmaps).
Multiple Angles
For the advanced DVD author, multiple angles are
the special feature to spice up the video.
Single and multiple PGC Titles
For the advanced DVD author who needs a special
case of Multi-PGC titles.
More Menu Effects
DVD-lab PRO builds on DVD-lab's available menu
effects. You can use various Texture Fills and new
Effects such as Metal Shine for new cool effects
such as metal, gold, chrome, marble - and more!
New Dynamic effects
DVD-lab and DVD-lab PRO have strong integrated menu
designers with multiple Undo/Redo. DVD-lab PRO adds
also new DynamicFX textures that can be animated
for Motion menus.
Delayed menu buttons and menu Cells
We added delayed menu button for motion menus so
you can create motion menu with a loop points for
seamless transition from intro. This also works
together with Render Motion where you can now
specify an intro effect.
Play Lists, Counter Lists, Random Lists etc.
DVD-lab Pro has also ability to add a number of
different play lists. If you like to play your
movies in an alternative order you don't have to
add the files to DVD multiple times. All you need
to do is to make one or more play lists.
Special Navigation Objects
There are other special navigation object such as
Condition Splitter, Case List or Return to last
menu that you can incorporate into your layout.
Audio-Only Track
A 'Movie' can now have also audio track(s) only.
This is a good option for distributing large amount
of music on a DVD. As addition you can also edit
the still screen that will be displayed during the
audio playback. (For example, a song title).
Movie Branching
Branching object allows you to add a new chapter
sequence into a Movie. Chapters can then be played
in any order, can be skipped or repeated in any
fashion - and they don't take additional DVD space.
Multi-Aspect Widescreen menus
DVD-lab PRO can create widescreen menus that will
play correctly on both widescreen and normal 4:3
aspect ratio televisions.
Smart-Compile
Recompile only the menu changes and keep the time
intensive movie multiplexing from the last compile.
This way you can change or fix project within a few
minutes.
Connection
The Connections window is the heart of your DVD
structure even more now with the PRO version. You
have additional ways to organize your objects where
the Connections window allows for easier work with
table view, split-view or snap-to-grid features. As
well as the Title Button, you can now program the
action to be taken when the player's remote control
"Menu" button is pressed.
Smart Components and Scripts
DVD-lab PRO's integrated scripting language,
"Lab-Talk", will enable you to make your own
wizards, smart components and effects that can help
you with repetitive tasks.
Things for PROs
If you still feel you don't have enough features,
DVD-lab PRO gives you full access to the PRE and
POST commands of any object where you can add your
own virtual machine code using a self-checking VM
Command Scripting language.
Ability to Compile without Abstraction Layer
For special needs DVD-lab PRO can compile DVD
without its Abstraction layer. This will work like
the professional high-end systems where you can
define all the links and structure by yourself.
High Educational Value
DVD-lab Pro is an excellent tool with which to
learn and understand all the fine aspects of DVD
authoring while still being fun to use. It will put
you in the driving seat with the whole structure
clearly in front of you.
Grows with your requirements
As you get more experienced with DVD authoring, you
will be happy to learn that DVD-lab PRO is always
ahead with its features. It is not easy to outgrow
our software because we designed it for creative
users like us.
.. and More
We haven't even mentioned other new things like
Film Strip menus or 360-degree Panoramic menus. But
there are still more things to discover...
