Re: Compressor settings

I'm sorry - it's been a trying week - and in part you're right, you should always nail down a workflow before you offer it to clients. In truth, MY client had already offered HIS client the Blu-Ray, so I made the best choices I could in order to satisfy the brief. Not ideal, but things rarely are, are they? I was clear with him that it could lead to problems, but he still wants a Blu-Ray, so I'd rather try to deliver than risk him going elsewhere.

In turn, I hope both my comments (and Walter's, who has had a MUCH worse time of it than me - I'm only starting to feel the pain) will act as a caution to anyone in my situation considering Encore as an authoring solution on a new Mac - many of whom have probably grown tired of waiting for Apple to deliver.

Until someone from Adobe can refute the problems everyone is having, I would say to people to think again, or just get Toast for simple burns. It's a shame - I think Encore is a solid product in other areas, and I would be happy to use it in the future if it was at an acceptable standard.
