ScanSouth offers a full range of DVD authoring services including but not limited to: video encoding, motion menu design, and pre-mastering. Our real-time hardware encoding capabilities include the Optibase Moviemaker200 and Sonic Solution's SD2000. Real-time MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 with AC3 encoding ensures the highest quality available. With intimate knowledge of Sonic Scenarist and DVD Studio Pro, ScanSouth comes equipped to handle any authoring needs such as DVD-5, DVD-9, subtitle integration and creation, and DLT mastering.

Video digitization converts videotaped testimony, usually provided on VHS tape or DV
tape, to high-quality digital (MPEG-1 or MPEG-2) files. ScanSouth will work with the client to identify key testimony and convert the clips to separate files. The completed digital files can be stored on CD or DVD and will be cataloged on a thumbnail menu for instant access. This is ideal during trial, ADR or settlement conferences. The video
would actually contain printed text in sync with the videotaped testimony.
