Building the project – Apple DVD Studio Pro 4 User Manual
Page 568
Based on the DVD specification, Jacket Picture graphics should be supplied in three
different resolutions (small, medium, and large) for display on different platforms and
display devices. DVD Studio Pro automatically generates the required graphics and the
folder that holds them, JACKET_P, when you build your project.
To add a jacket picture to your project
1
Import the graphic to use for the jacket picture into the Assets tab.
2
Choose the jacket picture graphic from the Asset pop-up menu in the Disc Inspector’s
Advanced tab.
The jacket picture will appear in the Simulator when you stop playback.
Building the Project
Once you have set the prebuild disc properties, you can build your project. Depending
on the size of your project and the speed of your computer and disk drives, this process
can take several hours to finish.
To build your project
1
Do one of the following:
• Click Build in the toolbar.
Note: To format the project immediately after building it, click Build/Format. See
for more information.
• Press Command-Option-C.
2
Select the drive and folder to build to in the dialog that appears, then click Open.
The build process begins and a progress bar appears that shows the element names
currently being compiled. If the selected folder already has a folder of the same type it
is generating (VIDEO_TS or HVDVD_TS), see
for details on the dialog
that appears.
Note: You cannot build an SD project in a folder that already contains an HVDVD_TS
folder, and you cannot build an HD project in a folder that already contains a VIDEO_TS
folder.
