Q-
Do I need DVD Menu (Authoring) or Chapters are enough?
A- DVD
menu provides easy navigation of certain content
you want to watch.
15 minutes automatic chapters will not bring you to
the begining of the scene you want to view.
Authoring is done as
the last step before creating your finished DVD. It creates
an interactive and colorful menu which allows you to select
different scenes from your DVD. This feature is not available
with analog tapes.
Q- Why
is it very important to use high quality equipment when converting
tapes from NTSC to PAL system or vice versa?
A- This
process is far more complex than putting 2 VCR's together and
converting from one system to another. As a brief
explanation, it is a process to convert 525 TV lines to 625 European
TV lines. If the proper equipment is not used when converting
the video, motion artifacts may occur and brightness and color temperature
will change and as a result the colors
will shift.
We use the same high end converters as are being used in some major
TV stations which help to eliminate the above problems. Our genlock
capability converters allow us to adjust vertical and horizontal
parameters and the time base corrector (TBC)will correct time base
errors normally accures when trasfering analog signals to digital format

is track at once ?
A- When
creating an audio CD each track is recorded separately by listening
to every song on your audio tape and creating chapters accordingly.
