Alpha Transitions
DVD Studio Pro includes several Alpha Transitions. These transitions use short video clips
to produce a transition from the current picture to the new picture. These transitions,
indicated with the Greek letter alpha in front of their name, have no settings other than
a duration.
Additionally, you can even create and import your own Alpha Transitions. See
for details on the process.
Standard Transitions
When you choose a Standard Transition from the Transition pop-up menu in the Transition
tab in the Menu or Button Inspector, DVD Studio Pro creates a short video clip to be used
as the transition.
