this basically does the same as svcdtodvd but allows menus and chapters
i cant find a download link on the site nor does it seem to have a page to buy it

It has'nt been released yet. I have bee using it and it works great. You need Win 2000 or XP, because a lot problems with 9x and ME. Don't ask me for the link, I lost my all my bookmarks from the last system rebuild. The version I have is a 30 day trial, and probably a beta. It is very flexable and can do a lot of neet things. Keeep a lookout for it, mabe do a google search.
Good luck, hope that helps.

I am running it on XP and LOVE it
New updates coming out every 2 weeks.
Update restarts the trial period.
essentially it is free until final release (I think and hope) and then will be $79
Bargain!!!

found it and did a sample svcd to dvd
the chapters and images are cool
this looks to be a much easier version on mastero
for the authoring side
but the audio conversion froze for me so i used files i had just done with svcd to dvd
on the whole it looks very promising
i assume dvd menu studio with intergrate seamlessly as they are by the same guy
couldnt find a link to the full version so i got the update which does as an install but missing a load of templates
maybe somene could help me with them
want to try a dvd with 2 kiddie films for my son with it and i kinda like the template he used in the tutorial

Me too. But if that get sorted & we have to facility to transcode the audio automatically (as an option) then we should be ok. At the moment you have to still sit by your PC whilst it asks you...

SVCD2DVDMPG may just become a batch BIN ripper......

Make sure you hava at least 4.2 GB of available hard disk space excluding temp and swap files!

Thank you, finally a link that worked, just downloaded and installed 1:00 am, I will try it later. Just wanted to say looks at first glance a lot like DVD Maestro visually. And is the posted price correct 79.00 US. One more question does anyone have a estimated public release date? If it is a DVD Maestro work like at that price it should make a lot of people legal again.

On Site did not see a release date.
Introductory Price $79

this is mostly aimed at the home video ...not dvd backup.

When it can do multiple audio streams, subtitles, and import chapter times from CCE we got ourselves a real winner at $99. It looks very promising and will play with it.

Thanks for the link.
I'll try this proggy.

mrbass is right, this software is to take your mpeg2 files into DVD.

Love it
have been doing motion menu type authoring with VHS captures I've done and I am quite pleased with the results.

My opinion on DVDLAB

An awesome tool for different jobs.
For starters the only proggie that did the svcd 2 dvd+r without problems.
And the good news is it is very easy to use it will encode the audio for you to 48Khz if this isn't already done.
The only thing I have to do is demux my files so I don't get a header problem. Then I can put the audio and Video file in the asset bin and put 5 svcd's on one dvd. No synch problem and great chapter creation.
Nice menu settings very easy to use.

I realy like this proggie the only thing that I missed was an option to cut but then agian it's an authoring tool not a video editer.
I use Womble to cut before I demux and then everything plays fine on my Pioneer dv 444. My older pioneer dv525 had only half screen but that is the prob I have with every other tool to so it's the dvd player.

The only thing I have to solve is vcd because that doesn't work out yet for me. I think I will try to do this with Svcd2dvd also a great tool and then use dvdlab to make a nice looking dvd.

DVDLAB is also running pretty stable I haven't had any bug probs and I find that amazing because I have made pretty complex dvd with a lot of chapters two menu's and it runs fine. I have the first release and I didn't even bother to upgrade so pleased am I with this gem of software.

CYA,
