Features:

Adobe Photoshop CS integration
Edit menus in Photoshop CS and see your changes immediately in Adobe Encore. Experience full support for Photoshop CS, including nested layer sets and non-square pixels.

Enhanced Library palette
Organize individual text layers, vector shapes, background layers, and layer sets — in addition to buttons, images, and menu templates — in the enhanced Library palette. Even create your own custom library sets.

Styles palette
Easily apply styles to your DVD project menus using the new Styles palette. Use the supplied styles or create your own by simply dragging them from the Menu Editor.

Check Project
Verify your project at any time during production. Adobe Encore checks navigation, bit rates, and subtitles for problems and presents the results in a sortable list.

Custom workspaces
Configure window arrangements for specific tasks and then save them for future use. Use preset window arrangements to quickly reset windows for specific jobs such as timeline editing or menu creation.

QuickTime file support
Take advantage of a broader choice of import options with new support for QuickTime.

Background transcoding
Carry on working without interruption while source files are transcoded in the background.

Menu Editor enhancements
Take advantage of full support for Photoshop CS guides to ensure precise layout and alignment of items in the Menu Editor.

Enhanced marker support
Experience a stronger integrated workflow — Adobe Encore now creates chapter points from markers in AVI and MPEG-2 files created in Adobe Premiere® Pro 1.5 and After Effects® 6.5 software.

User operations control
Disable or enable the viewer's remote control operations in specific sections of a DVD — for example, to ensure display of mandatory content such as copyright notices.
