Authored My First "HD DVD-R" Project
I used Corel VideoStudio 11 Plus this past weekend to burn raw HDV program stream (.MPG) files to an "HD DVD-R" image, which I burned to DVD-R with widescreen menus.
I then took the DVD-R to the local Boise Circuit City store and I tested playback in a new Toshiba HD-A2 model player.
The Toshiba "HD DVD" player was connected to a 56" Samsung DLP high definition TV.
The DVD-R contained HDV video shot by a Canon HV10.
(This video was mailed to me by a client so that I could help him with his HD DVD-R authoring workflow.)
WOW!
Everything worked.
The video -- of a guy climbing an ice wall -- played in pristine high definition without a flaw.
People in the store started gathering around to watch.
They asked me if it were true that the video were shot by a consumer high definition camcorder.
They couldn't believe the quality.
The audio also played perfectly.
The menu buttons worked like a charm.
No problems at all.
And I was able to do this with a program that costs $99.99.
We have, indeed, entered a new video age.
