Requirements for DVD production

[tonyl33]

Someone should come up with an announcement same as what 'jchunter' did with the VideoStudio forum.
DVD production is not for everybody to try. There are basic requirements on your system configurations that must be fulfilled. I am not qualified to comment on this but you simply can't do capturing & burning a good DVD without knowing the facts. So far I have burn over 500 DVD & make coasters of at least 30pcs. I can only share my system specs which I think is quite sufficient.
P4 3.0E/ MSI 865PE MB/ 1Gb DDR 400 RAM/ MSI 256mb FX5500 VGA/ 120Gb SATA HDD/ 120Gb ATA Ext USB2/ 8X TDK DVDRW/ 16X Sony DVDRW/DL/ 16X LG DVDRW/DL/RAM/ Pinnacle AV/DV capture card.
Software: Pinnacle Studio 8.7/ Ulead MovieFactory 4/ Ulead VideoStudio 8/ Ulead Photoimpact 10.
My dream machine is a 945 dual core CPU with PCI Express VGA & 2Gb RAM. That will made the rendering a real breeze.
