I've been testing DVDArchitect 2.0 for about a week. This is my modest conclusion:
1. a friend around here (MJPollard) has discovered a bug (openning older DVDA 1.0 files with version 2.0 makes the applc recompress the video) - you can fix that by openning 2 instances of DVDA and choosing copy and paste functions for all the buttons (submenu included - you'll only have to remake the main menu, which is not so difficult anyway);
2. DVDA 2.0 does not show the real time it takes to burn a dvd. I guess SONY is trying to solve that too (as they are aware of the number one bug)
3.When you have motion menus, the function auto calculate, does not work well, calculating a wrong, bigger size than the file actually is. The result is a dark screen at the end of the motion menu (mpeg file). You can simply fix this by selecting <specify> instead of auto calculate.
Congratulations to SONY. DVDA 2.0 is "the" software. A must have tool, YET easy to use, despite of these minor bugs I'm sure will be fixed soon. I guess now no one seems to remember the old Sonic Foundry anymore :)
