Subtitle Editor
Type subtitles into a preview window or directly onto the subtitle track. Edit text and apply custom attributes, borders, backgrounds and screen positions.

Subtitle Import & Export
Save time creating subtitle tracks by importing or exporting text files with timecode and attribute information.

Audio Volume Control
Ensure consistent audio levels throughout your DVD title. Avoid audio level fluctuations between menus, movies, slideshows and audio tracks.

Language Coding
Assign a language code to different subtitle or audio tracks. Selected tracks will become the default setting according to a DVD player's language setup.

Dolby® Digital audio Support
Import 5.1 channel Dolby Digital audio files and encode to 2-channel Dolby Digital stereo.

Surround Sound Emulation
Will simulate surround sound when played on a set-top DVD player.

Widescreen Support
Import, preview and output 16:9 widescreen format files.

Full Video Format Support
Capture and encode the popular DV/AVI, MPEG or analog formats.

Support for Dual Layer DVD Drives
Dual-layer burning technology offers twice the storage capacity (8.5 GB) of single-layer DVD discs. Using dual-layer DVD burners, users can now burn their own long-form video projects such as seminars, live events and independent films on a single disc.

Import Video from Disc
Capture from analog or DV sources and transcode to MPEG on-the-fly or before burning. Import from sources including DVDs and Quicktime.

MPEG-Direct
Save time and disk space by capturing directly from any source, including DV, to MPEG 2 or MPEG 1.

MPEG.Now
Transcode video formats to Ulead's MPEG codec, delivering superb-quality video, audio and images.

Two-pass MPEG-2 Encoding
Two-pass MPEG-2 encoding analyzes a video stream during the first pass to pre-determine the most appropriate compression for each frame. Then the encoder renders the video with optimized streams during the second pass. This video encoding method adjusts the bit rates more efficiently to create better, smoother visual quality.

SmartRender™ Multiple formats can be mixed in the same project, and some elements can be selected to be burned on the disc without conversion, to avoid quality loss.

Scaleable Architecture
Deliver fast encoding to high-quality MPEG format. The MPEG encoding engine is multi-threaded to take full advantage of Intel Hyper-Threading as well as dual processor systems.

Instant Burning
Save hard drive space by burning directly to DVD, or create an ISO disc image to use later.
