you're a beast dude...just sayin

Andrew,
I looked all over the web to find a good Encore DVD authoring tutorial, and couldnt really find anything near this tut. My clients love me because of you and the products you guys offer on this site.
Thank you and keep up the great work!

Hey Andrew i like all of your tutorials and they are very helpful but...
Next time when you make a new tutorial, try not to talk so much and make the video shorter.

That's the only bad thing that you have.

Thanks,
From: Albania

so far so good

Hello Andrew,

Always enjoy your tutorials and love your sense of humor.
I just followed you DVD authoring tutorial, but find something strange with it.
Everything I 'toggle' between menu buttons, the menu video start from start and does not continue where it was. Tried everything but couldn't find any solution. My previous authoring software didn't have this problem.

Very good! Congratulations from Egypt

Thank you!! was already working the same way, except i didn't know that you can also make buttons in AE for the menu..

sweet!

I love this, but the vide on my burned DVD is jittery and jumpy. Ive tried for 3 days (50 DVD burns) and can not sort this out at all. Tried all combination of field orders, tried burning from different hard drives, burning to folder instead of discs etc... nothing works?! I'm desperate for someone to help with this...

How do you get the target icon inside the 'O' in RecOn Man title?

-Ben

WOW! I love this tutorial - how do you get your movie onto the title? And how do you create another menu inside the BONUS FEATURES icon?

all the tutorial are amazing but this one is some simple.

Thank you and god bless you

I LOVE YPU ANDRO

fantastic work dude!!

oh hey i got an idea, maybe, just maybe, you can make a tutorial of a person running and everyone else is frozen. so basically he's superman. if you have the time then i would appreciate it, if not then thats ok :)

Muito massa esses tutoriais

This is impressive work. Thanks for the tutorial.

Just giving you two thumbs up for your work.
Simply impressive!

Thanks YOUR THE MAN!

Error: When i try to export to MPEG2-DVD, an error says: "Could not load any writer. Adobe Media Encoder will now exit."..and then it says: "After Effects error: Writer Initialization Error!".. I dunno what's wrong. pls. help!

Do you need AE cs4? or you can do it just with cs3?

I was just thinking that instead of highlights for the buttons since it can look messy (I understand it's for tutorial purposes) you could get the text tool and use the same font as the button and kind of do a highlight with that with bigger font slightly. Although if you did it this way it wouldn't be a drag and drop sort of thing, you would have to create a button for each selection you have. Other than that, this tutorial was the most helpful tutorial I have ever watched in my entire life. I've always wanted to do this kind of stuff.

Thanks a ton Andrew, you do amazing work and you're a good teacher.

Great job! Way to show me Encore, I have it and now I know how to use it. I usually was just using DVD Studio, but couldn't make 16x9 dvd menu's, but now I can, thanks.

Great tutorial!

Only problem is when I went to view it on my TV (actually on 2 televisions) it looked a little distorted and fuzzy.

Wonder why?

Again: A great Tutorial!

I just want to ad: For those of you who have Dynamic Link (it only comes with the bundles), you don´t have to render the aae project!
You easily can add it in Encore (or open a new one there).
And: You can add buttons directly in aae!!!

Chears,

All the best!

Greetings from Vienna!


Jakob

Ha ha, way to go Sam!! It's good to see him kicking butt! Thanks for the tutorial Andrew, =)

i think its rude andrew kramer doesnt reply to all of us.....lol....jk

Kramer you are a legend. You totally saved my media project with this one.

Thanks for all your great products and tutorials.

Jeshua

I've been looking for a tutorial like this for a long time! Thanks!

Nice Fighting and Authoring . . . . . . .

I buy the serious fx training dvd and then you put this up for free -_-

I love it. It's cool!

Very awesome tutorial.
I was curious if Adobe Dynamic Link could be used to achieve some of the same results? Or is it not really necessary?

good idea thank u my best pro...

Thank you from Ukraine )
You are GREAT! )

Andrew! You are great! I don't speak English well, but we, in Russia, love you!)) Thanks for tutorials! We sit with dictionaries to teach your great lessons! it that costs!)))

Good, it is kind of the same tutorial that was in
the DVD serious FX training.

Hey Andrew!


Can you start making tutorials with Adobe After Effects CS4???
Because i only have CS4 version, and any projects of 3d text you have in your tutorias doesn't work correct with my aee cs4.

Thanks! And very nice tutorials!

thnks!

great work cramer, i m so thankful 2 u becz i m learning so much things from u God Bless u. Ur way of presentation is great

SO GOOD THX

Hey Andrew. Great tutorial. One question though...

What exactly is the point of starting out with NTSC D1 Widescreen Square Pixel, if you're only going to convert it into NTSC DV Widescreen? Why not just start out in NTSC DV Widescreen and save any troubles you could run into?

I'm asking this because I personally don't know much about conversions of aspect ratios. So maybe an explanation as to why you do it that one would help me out. Thanks.

I just found your tutorials and let me say the're awesome¡¡¡
all the basics for after effects.. all in one :D
thanks so much for this... and of course in some time i will go for the advanced :D ... in some time of course

thanks from Peru ;)

Hi, Great tutorial.

Just wondering, is there any need to export as MPEG2 from Premiere CS4, when you Dynamic Link it directly into Encore? I assume the conversion would be the same? So you can let Encore do it without sacrificing anything?

Cheers, keep up the great work!

John

Awesome tutorial! You explain things very clearly and make it very easy to follow!


Thanks!

Man, i can't wait until the 100th tutorial... hopefully its good as always

hahah great ending, gotta love the "short circuit" reference

Quick Question... not exactly sure what the issue is but when I choose new menu in encore, it automatically is putting a premade template menu in, not a blank menu. any thoughts???
