THX to oldfart13

[D.A.R.J.R.]

I thought the tsunamai version was the 2.0 version?

[Baldrick]

what's new?

[roma_turok]

what's new?

You have option creative and insert to DVD slideshow

[Wile_E]

Is the First Play and Motion Menu options more customizable? Right now, when you add a First Play track, you can't totally hide it from view. The menu for the track can't be hidden. DVD Slideshow? There better be more new features, or else it won't be worth upgrading and paying for this new version.

[roma_turok]

Edit title like in TMPGEnc MPEG Editor

[AngusMacGyver]

What about subtitle support?

[roma_turok]

What about subtitle support?

No subtitle support.
Only 2 stream audio.

[roma_turok]

Preview DVD before burning.

[gadgetguy]

How about having different durations of background music for each menu?

[roma_turok]

How about having different durations of background music for each menu?

Just download and find out .

[gadgetguy]

I'm monolingual.

[DereX888]

Does it finally keep subtitles? Or better yet - let you add or remove subtitles?

I guess more advanced customized settings are out of the question, but it would be nice to have there option for setting up various menus (like audio lenghts and buttons for different menu pages etc)...

[MJPollard]

How about having a little consideration and reducing the size of those screengrabs so they don't scroll off the edge of the screen?

[DereX888]

they don't on my screen,
c'mon, largest one is some 1000x700 pixels, perhgaps its time to upgrade your monitor

automatic translations obviously still need better engines

[edDV]

Are they charging for this update if you bought v1.6?

[MJPollard]

they don't on my screen,
c'mon, largest one is some 1000x700 pixels, perhgaps its time to upgrade your monitor

My 19" monitor is at a more than comfortable 1280x1024, and I keep my Firefox bookmarks window open on the left. That still leaves more real estate on the screen open than most people, and the images are still big enough to require horizontal scrolling. And what about people running at 1024x768? Or smaller? (They do exist out there, and casually dismissing them in such a manner is neither fair nor polite.) Asking the person posting these pics to have a little consideration isn't an unreasonable request.

That sounds like usual politically correct crap - lowering down to the lowest common denominator, and I won't even go there.
Ages ago I had desktop area of 1280x1024 on an 15' monitor capable of 800x600@75Hz only. You mean people can't set up their desktop to be larger than the screen res. anymore? Thats why we all should keep 800x600 or maybe even 640x480?, because some of the readers may not know how to do it?
gimme a break...

EDIT:
IMO it is impolite to be bitching about the pictures size instead of thanking the poster for taking his time , making them pics and sharing them with us
Its your problem if they don't fit perfectly on your desktop, so I tell you again in an even less polite way: get f&cking lost, man!

Hey, if you are going to deal with digital video, you need to at least deal with 720 pixels wide. Get ready for 1280, 1440 and 1920.

[roma_turok]

No way! The TMPGEnc DVD Author 2.0 available from February and still don't have english version.
I think its take long long time to Pegasys release english version.

Theyre waiting for better JAP<>ENG translation engines probably?

[Mrsash]

Gentlemen this is waht I posted a couple of days ago in Tmpgauthor's comments


This sofware was fine about 2 years ago but now its not comparable to most software in funtionality. What it needs

Batch Mode
Fix the File Size bug
Needs to support Multiple Audio
Needs to Support Subitles
Needs to Support NTSC and PAL files on the same Disc(I managed to do this manually, a tutorial is in order but barely have the time to create one)

I have been in email contact with the Author. He claimed Version two has been released in Japan will translate and release soon. That was about two months ago. He also mentioned



Dear Sir or Madam,

Thank you for your mail.

Maybe it has to do with the way the authoring engine process the MPEG
file after all. It seems it has been fixed in the version 2.0.

The risk is to have such feature massively used for DVD copying instead
of pure creation. Still, there is also the possibility to use it for
digital TV captures.

If we want to sale our software as a DVD-Video authoring solution we
must stick on the standard. This is also the only way to be sure the
DVD-Video created by our software is compatible.You are free to use
other software to tweak the format.

Because developing a software almost from scratch requires a lot of time.
Version 2.0 pushes the limits, and worths to wait for.

I see the point, but please realize this may be not the most awaited
feature of our software for the majority of the users, This is why we do
not make it top priority for now. Of course, this may change in the
future.

So release it already

[Mrsash]

My advice is everyone who visits this emails the Author for the features they want but at least as a minimum the above mentioned. There is power in numbers.

[Wile_E]

I asked them about English version. The reply said they were working very hard to prepare it for release.

[BobK]

How about being able to set the font size for all pages/chapters instead of having to change each one individually?

[tug_hill2]

Hello Group, I think that Version 2.0 looks great...!

I am, however, hoping they added the ability to change the sudio volume of a clip as I make DVDs that contain as many as 30 clips, each with a different audio level as they were made from many sources over the years..! DVDiT 5 and Ulead WS2 have variable audio adjustments, but
I like TMPGEnc Author better...!

Doc_B

[tug_hill2]

sudio...

Oooooooopppssss, that should be audio volume NOT sudio volume.



Sorry

Doc_B

[Rosco]

Does it do 16:9 menus 'properly'??

ie. full 16:9 on a widescreen display
letterboxed on a 4:3 display
with the button highlights in the right place??
