Integrating AuthorScript®
|
|
|
|
The AuthorScript libraries are self-contained so
that calls to the libraries can be seamless within
an application. Our partners have found that the
AuthorScript libraries can be integrated into their
application in about two engineer-weeks, including
testing time.
The easiest way to implement AuthorScript within
an application is by providing a "Publish as DVD"
feature. This is a menu option directly within the
application that translates an Edit List or Video
Timeline into a DVD title without any menus, chapters,
or other elaborate DVD navigation features. While
this requires very little development effort, the
end result may be as basic as a linear DVD title
that plays like a laserdisc or videotape from start
to end.
For developers seeking more control over the interactive
features of DVD, the application needs to support
some DVD related UI development, which could include
menu design, chapter point definition, navigation
control, multi-angle video, multiple audio stream
support, and subtitle support. |
