Working with projects
This section describes the basic settings for your Blu-ray Disc project. While all of these settings are
appropriately called "setup," it does not mean that all of these settings need to be completed as the first
step in the authoring process. Many of these settings can be edited at any point in the authoring process
prior to formatting your final disc image.
This section will guide you through each setup window and describe the editable parameters for each
window.
Asset management
It is advisable that you set up a folder on your computer called DSA Projects and create a folder for each
Blu-ray Disc project within the DSA Projects folder. All of your project assets must be contained in the
project directory. For organizational purposes, we suggest that you create subfolders for images,
audio/video assets, and subtitles. A sample directory structure would look like this:
During the authoring process, DoStudio Authoring will create a folder in the project's root folder called
projectname.content and when you compile your project DoStudio Authoring will create a folder called
projectname.BD that contains the compiled disc image.
