Produce Movie Disc: Other formats
Since the editing steps are almost the same we will just take a short look into the VCD, SVCD, DVD+/-VR and DivX creation. Let us start with (S)VCD.
(S)VCD creation:

The only limitation that we have noticed is that no transition effects for photo slideshows are available. The rest is identical to the DVD creation.
Editable DVD (DVD+/-VR):
This function enables us to create an editable DVD. This means that, in case that the disc is burned on a DVD+/-RW, the content of resulting DVD can be edited later with another application of the PowerProducer software. The disc’s written in DVD+VR format can be played on a video player and discs in DVD-RW can be played on DVD video players compatible to the RW format.

For DVD+VR, there are no limitations compared to the creation of normal DVDs. One (positive) difference we have noticed is when it comes to set the chapters for the +/-VR disc. No chapter menu pages are created when we set the chapters with PowerProducer.

When it comes to DVD-VR, then we must add that we missed the option to edit the menus.
DivX-CD:
DivX, one of the most popular compression formats is a must have for each video editing software.
DivX creation with PowerProducer 3 is a straightforward process. The only negative thing is the fact that the included DivX pro bundle is only a 6-month trial version.

Also, there are a few limitations compared to the DVD creation. The following limitations were found and it doesn’t matter if the version 5.2.1 or the newer version 6 of DivX is installed.
- No chapters
- No menu editing
Apart from these limitations, everything worked well.
Well, the testing of PowerProducers ability to handle other formats than DVD is done; let us now continue with testing of the other features.

, as when I burnt a DVD it halves the horizontal resolution from 720 to about 360, making ikky vertical blind effect. I tried twice - once from image file, once from DVD folder. :r :S Using the so-called good quality setting, as the high quality needed about 6 GB. The good was about 3 Gigglebytes :+ which is the original file size. Using Nero, I finally burnt an image file made by Flick DVD, and perfect original quality at least, if no nice menus or chapters. :c Disgusting waste of so much time desining the beautiful menu with 3 different backgrounds.
