Dvd Authoring Program

[aejr]

I'm sure this is somewhere in this site, but I don't have the time to look. What is a good dvd authoring program that is easy to use? I have mydvd, but it really sucks and is slow. However, I do like the ease of use creating menus and stuff. I also like how it finds the files from your dvd and let's you select which ones to import instead of seperating them. Is Pinnacle Studio good for this?

One last question, It would be great if it could take clips from nonprotected dvd's and do that to. I'm willing to pay up to $100 bucks to get something EASY to use.

Okay yeah this one keeps coming up and I did download a free trial, but I wasn't sure about it's ease of use. Are there some pre-designed templates for the menus to kind of get you started? I'd really like something like that where the framework is in place and all you have to do is kind of plug in your own graphics and such.

IMHO TDA is as easy as it gets. All the menu templates are included, all you need are your video and audio files, a few mouse button clicks and it's on it's way..
