OK, as an example : Can you get it to convert the type 2 DV files
created in VideoStudio (another ULead package) ? It *should* encode
them to MPEG2 as part of the DVD build. Of course should could and
"can" ought to go together, but the packages are not at all
integrated, so one package appears to support DV AVI perfectly well,
while the disk creator simply hangs up with the timer ticking but
never encodes the AVIs (nor does it offer an error message)
So, badly written, buggy software.
