Working with DVD-compliant content


    Some content you import will not require transcoding, as the content is already a file type that is DVD-compliant. Importing such content allows you to work with the exact assets that will appear on the DVD and, because the content is already DVD-compliant, you reduce the amount of time it takes to build the project.

    The following files are considered DVD-complaint and, therefore, will not require transcoding:

    DVD-compliant file type

    Restrictions

    Elementary MPEG-2 video (.mpg, .mpv, .m2v)

    None

    Wave (.wav)

    Must be 48khz, mono or stereo, with either a 16 or 24-bit sample rate.

    AIFF

    AIFF-C is not supported

    AC3

    None

    Program streams that contain DVD-compliant streams

    None

    Note: Adobe Encore DVD also imports MPEG-2 formats that are non-DVD-compliant. As with other non-DVD-compliant formats, you have the choice to transcode the content as you work with it or at build time.
