DVDlab

What works

Apparently everything. I frequently author DVDs and with a small workaround described below the only thing I can see that doesn't work is the small Audio tab in the preview screen, which does not affect almost any user any way.

What does not

Workarounds

What was not tested

Other applications in the Tools menu. I only use DVDlab for authoring. Other things (video and audio encoding, audio delay, etc.) I do with external applications.

Additional Comments

Well, DVDlab needs one little small tweak before it can run all OK. I always ran this program without being able to add chapters in my projects, mainly because of this bug (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4208), until this error prevented me from even adding videos. So after many trials and errors I found this simple workaround: go to "View" menu, click on "Reset Bars and Windows..." and restart the program. Upon restart, it will appear an alert window showing for 1 or 2 seconds before DVDlab closes. Click on the OK button before it go away, and you'll have a full working DVDlab. If you can't catch the OK button on the first run, just reopen the program until you get it. And don't forget, the blank menus bug can be solved by setting the Windows version as "Windows 95" in winecfg. Admin note: rating changed to conform to the rating definitions.
