New guide series on Afterdawn

Written by Rich Fiscus @ 15 Aug 2007 9:16 User comments (5)

Today I'm posting the first in a series of guides for creating DVDs. The project involves creating a DVD using public domain video files and a combination of free, trial, and on occasion low cost commercial tools. Instructions will be given for both PAL and NTSC DVDs.

Some of you may have seen this previously when I inadvertantly published it in place of my CCE Basic guide. If you were looking for my CCE guide I apologize. It's also up now so you can finally read it.

You can find the guide, titled Basic DVD Authoring Project Part 1, at

https://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/basic_dvd_project_part_i.cfm

Deciphering CCE Basic is finally at the correct link as promised previously.

More guides for DVD authoring and more can be found in our guides section.

Newbie

I started out on the guide and after reading the first two sections, I staarted downloading the various files that weer included in the Sources Section. Several of them could be downloaded but many just showed up as some sort of machine language or hex scrawl and would not download. The basic movie "39 Steps" also did this. Is there a reason for this? kwhiz01@gmail.com

Top stuff well done. This helps us out when dealing with newbie questions instead of writing out the steps they are already in the guide.

	Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing. 1 user comment
	Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review - obstacle avoidance doesn't work as it should, otherwise almost perfect robot vacuum We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
