DVD Authoring

With the ever-increasing popularity of DVD as a delivery format, Broadcast One offers a variety of creative DVD services.

Authoring is the process of taking your video assets and creating a finished DVD - with interactive features such as menus, navigation, chapters and alternate audio tracks. We'll help you plan, design and execute your DVD title to fit your needs, your audience and your project budget.

Encoding is the process of converting your video to MPEG-2, the digital language of DVD. We provide high-quality conversions using either constant bit-rate or variable bit-rate encoding.

Through every stage of the authoring process, we run tests to assure the DVD's interactivity and player compatibility. The finished DVD can then be duplicated with a variety of labeling and packaging options.

Please contact us for a more information about our DVD authoring services. We'll be happy to discuss your DVD project and give you a cost estimate.

If you're looking for basic transfers from videotape to DVD, and don't need any interactive features, please refer to the price guide below.
