Thanks for the information, Neil!

Do you know if Scenarist BD can author DVD, as well as Blu-ray discs?

I really wish Adobe would continue to develop Encore and also include Ultra HD Blu-ray authoring.

Cheers,

Michael


There will be no more Encore CS 6 upgrades or updates.  TMPGEnc Authoring Works 6 has a free trial version.  You can create DVD and Blu-ray discs.  This program has recently been updated(September 27, 2017).  I think it is possible they will upgrade the program to include authoring Ultra HD Blu-ray discs.

I tried DVD Architect.

Unfortunately I get an error message when building disk with Premiere files.

It only likes mpeg2 files not H.264.

DVD STYLER

Hechanos de menos adobe encoré. Esperamos que lo retomen en un futuro. Ya que no solamente servía para discos sino también para Web.

Muy bien programa, potente y rápido para trabajar. Bastante intuitivo.

Encore is good, but I want something that is currently supported and will continue to get better over time, especially with authoring Ultra HD Blu-ray discs. Thanks for the link.

Thanks for the response, Michael. I have not used TMPGEnc Authoring Works 6 yet. I have heard mixed reviews. The main thing it has going for it is that the company supports it and continues to improve it, unlike Adobe with Encore CS6.

I do shoot in 4K, edit in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2018, and output to all types of media, including Blu-ray and DVD using Adobe Encore CS6. I just wished Adobe would support Encore and would improve its 1990's-era non-intuitive interface. The functionality is decent, but it would be great to see it improved, including the addition of 4K UHD.
