in the DoStudio Authoring workspace.
n DSA Indie Edition: Select this option if you want to create a Blu-ray Disc with BD-J menus.
n DSA EX Edition: Select this option if you want to create a Blu-ray Disc with HDMV menus.
n Mixed Mode (Indie + EX): Select this option if you want both menu type options available,
as in DoStudio Authoring 2.3 and earlier.
3. Browse to the location where you want to save your project.
