Sony Vegas Studio Pro 8 —
Over the past couple of years I have tried numerous DVD authoring/creation software packages. Each time they would fall short of needs and expectations. Then I discovered Vegas Studio 8. Vegas Studio comes in three flavors: Standard, Platinum, and Pro. I have been using the Platinum version because it fits my needs. Pro offers advanced editing tools for those needing to do more than what the Platinum version can offer. For me, the Platinum version has almost everything I want and more. I was able to edit my video, add chapters, create professional looking menus, and burn to a DVD with relative ease. The only downside to this package is the learning curve for the interface and the features. However, because of what this suite can do it makes the learning curve worth it. Anyone wanting great software to create their own DVDs, this is the one for them.
