Sony DVD Architect Pro 6.0 Build 237

Here are some key features of "Sony DVD Architect Pro":

Professional DVD Layout and Design:
· Author menu-based and single-title DVDs using backgrounds, motion menus, buttons, text, and effects. Set content to loop, hold, or timeout at the end of a scene. Import layered Photoshop (PSD) files for use as backgrounds, buttons, masks, and graphics.

DVD Scripting:
· DVD Architect Pro software supports the ability to create and run scripts in final DVD or Blu-ray Disc design. With scripting you can build robust interactivity into your projects.

Keyframes and Transformation:
· Add keyframes to the DVD Architect Pro timeline to animate objects such as buttons and graphics. You can also use keyframes to control pan/crop attributes over time.

Cinescore Integration:
· If you have Cinescore software installed, you can use it within DVD Architect Pro 5 software to generate music for menus, slideshows, and media without leaving the DVD Architect Pro environment.

Varied Marker Types:
Several different marker types give you complete control over:
· Scene selection
· Navigation
· Button-over-video placement

Buttons on Video:
· Add a button "hot-spot" over video and control its placement, duration, and link. This creates an interactive experience for the end user, allowing them to navigate to alternate media related to a specific scene on your disc.

Parental Control:
· With DVD Architect Pro 5 software you can set project properties to enable various parental control settings. These settings restrict a DVD's playback to match parental control levels set in the user's DVD player, as set by the Motion
Picture Association of America (MPAA):
