DVD Lab Vs. Adobe Encore

[Peplogic]

I'm about to make a purchase of a seperate DVD authoring program, to go with my DV editing software and I am currently testing DVD lab and the Adobe product. I was interested to think what the popular opinion is...

Is one Better then the other?

Any features that one has that the other does not?

Thanks

Dvd lab much easier to use. To use encore you need to be good with photoshop. DVD lab does not support subtitles, and dvd-9 disks. Encore is more advanced in making menus and such but is really hard to use. For the casual user like myself and most people in this forum dvdlab fits the bill and is a lot cheaper.

I've never used Adobe Encore but keep in mind that it does not support 1/2 D1 - DVD-Lab does...

This may not be an issue for you but it was for myself.

Oh ya no half d1. I forgot that this was also the reason I quit trying to learn it. I did read that supposubly there is a simple work around for this but I never tried it.
