Encoding

There are a variety of encoding tools and MPC has collected many experiences in recent years with Video Encoding.
Best results are achieved, depending on the provided image content. Conversions from PAL to NTSC and NTSC to PAL, based on the provided video files as well as from the finished DVDs, are also possible.
The audio encoding takes place in either Dolby Digital (5.1, 2.0, 1.0) or PCM.

Menu Design

The Menu Design is the icing of any DVD or Blu-ray Disc production. In addition to an appealing menu design, it also requires a simple and elegant user interface. We like to take over the development of your DVD production.

If you make the graphics for the menus yourself, please note the following formats and information:

  • The image size for DVD PAL 4: 3 720 x 576 pixels
  • The image size for DVD PAL 16: 9 1024 x 576 pixels
  • The image size for Blu-ray 16: 9 1920 x 1080 pixels
  • With text and buttons observe the “secure borders” (Title Save), that are required for video and DVD
  • Texts, logos and buttons must always be created in Photoshop on its own layer
  • Fonts must be sent as a seperate font file

If you want a worldwide audience, then your content needs to be on a digital platform. And that requires MP4 (MPEG-4) conversion. MP4 conversion modifies your video’s format so it’s playable on mobile devices, online retail outlets like Amazon, Netflix, and Hulu, portable game consoles, and video-sharing sites like YouTube and Vimeo.*

*Different sites, such as Vimeo, require different video specs. Think about where your video will be displayed so that we may fulfill your specific needs.
