Once again, DVD-Replica.com have the information readily to hand about the scripting commands you may come across when building your own scripts. The major difference for DVD Studio Pro is that you only have 8 registers to play with, and the syntax is slightly different. The information is copied onto this site, but all credit remains with the DVD-Replica chaps… great work, adapted slightly here. Head over to DVD-Replica.com to see it in it’s original form, or click here to see the DVDSP specific result. It is almost identical…

Thanks to some great information over at DVD-Replica.com, you can easily find out about the SPRM meanings. To help, we have copied their work to this site, but please be aware this is entirely theirs and all credit remains with them. It is a fabulous piece of information, so go and check it out!

The next tutorial about scripting has appeared, and is a fairly long run through of the three most common commands used in simple scripting - Jump, Mov and Set System Stream. It is aimed at beginners and goes through how to build a script, the things to watch out for and how to make these three commands work together to solve most of the common navigation problems on a DVD. It doesn’t give a specific tutorial on any one issue, but attempts to give an insight into how to build effective scripts for yourself.
You can see the tutorial here, or click in the page list to the left!

It struck me whilst reading through the LAFCPUG site that there are plenty of opportunities left to write out some of the more basic scripting actions. Not all navigation needs to be scripted, but from time to time there are occasions where it is simple and fast to do, too. One such would be where you have got more than one menu accessing the same track - it could be because these are scene selection menus, or that as an author you are wanting to provide a variety of different playback options. Whatever it is, for the most part you have to script this kind of thing. (OK, I *know* you *could* do it with stories, but where’s the fun in that?!)
So, a new tutorial for scripting a return to a menu is being developed - you can read the bare bones of it now, with images to come as soon as I can…

The good folks over at DVDAfterEdit are working very hard to get the HD capable version of their excellent software up and running. Already in testing, the software has a raft of features and some very cool stuff going on. And yes, the interface is better!
No details yet as to exactly what is happening with it - that would spoil the fun… but head over to dvdafteredit.com to see what’s going on.
