Question about the build section in Encore, so here is a basic scenario.
Let’s say I make a movie than has 10 Pictures, 10 Movies (MTS) about 1 minute long each and 15 soundtracks (10 from each movie and 5 others playing through the pictures). I edit some in After Effects and others in Premiere Pro (suite of CS 5.5). I make my movie and Dynamic Link to Encore to build a DVD. After building my menus and other stuff I Check the Build and all is go to build a DVD, and the DVD is written (burned). Playback of the DVD is just what I wanted and I am happy so far. Now I may wish to make more DVD’s sometime in the future like in a couple of years. Ok, that’s the scenario.
As I understand it, if I move or delete any of my picture, move or audio files, Premiere Pro and Encore will start asking where are the missing files and I will not be able to make another DVD until they are found. As you know, this will take up a lot of space on the hard drive. Question 1: is this understanding
correct?
To get around this issue, I am thinking of making a Folder, Image, or Master of a DVD and storing it on my hard drive and back-up drive. Then in the future I can take that Folder, Image, or Master of a DVD and use that to make more DVD’s. Question 2: Is this a correct way to make future DVD’s? Question 3: Which is best for this scenario, Folder, Image, or Master? Question 4: How do I make a DVD from a Folder, Image, or Master (the one that’s best)? And Question 5: Then I would not need to save all the Pictures, movies or soundtracks correct?
I know this is basic, so please be gentle on me.
Thank you,
