I'm a newbie when it comes to MM2. I really like the program, it is far
better and easier to use than Nero 6. I created my first movie in MM2 then
burned it to DVD using Nero, but I am very dissatisfied that I lose the scene
changes when I go into the DVD authoring application.

So while I'd like to continue using MM2 (it works *fine* for what I want to
do with the mini-DV home movies of my kids) I'd also like to explore a more
complete application that lets me keep my scene changes and use those as DVD
chapters directly. Currently I have to do these steps separately and it's
really a waste of time.

So my questions would be:

  1. Can any DVD authoring application read the MM2 project file and use my
scenes as DVD chapters?
  2. Is there an all-in-one package like Sony's "Click to DVD" that can
combine these steps?

Basically, I want to do something a bit more polished than directly burning
a DVD from my tapes, but I don't want to spend more than about 20-30 minutes
in front of the computer (capturing, encoding and burning times excluded).
Suggestions?

Thanks,

- Leo
