DVD Standard: Shows the DVD standard for this project.

SD DVD: When set to SD DVD, you can convert the project to HD-based DVD by

clicking the HD DVD button.

HD DVD: When set to HD DVD, however, you cannot change the project back to SD

DVD. See

Video Standard: Select the type of video used in this project, NTSC or PAL. This must

Streams

Audio: You can choose an audio stream that will serve as the initial active stream,

overriding the DVD player’s setting. The default setting is “not set,” which lets the DVD
player control the stream setting.

Note: The word Empty in parentheses after a stream number indicates that that stream
is currently empty.

Angle: You can choose a video stream that will serve as the initial active stream,

overriding the DVD player’s setting. The default setting is “not set,” which lets the DVD
