The consumer grade stuff was flogged off to someone else (I cannot remember who offhand) but all the pro stuff was canned totally, leaving no support at all. When Sonic Solutions were bought out by Rovi, Rovi diod not remove the license from Adobe, they closed down the entire Optical Disc section altogether including (after leaving a years grace) all support for Scenarist DVD & Blu-ray as well as the Sonic DVDA tools. Encore's core was from the at the time unused "DVD Producer" application and all Adobe did was added their own front end into the author core, which is effectively the multiplexing engine & the bit with all the hooks for the GUI to be added to - it sets the ground rules for what is & is not allowable in theory, with the local (Adobe) developers in this case deciding what sections they are prepared to give access to. One of the things that the regular bunch who all want everything from SD to UHD in one package including all necessary encoders for about $50 (and even at that price I wager serious numbers will still look for hacked versions) all tend to forget is that this is all patented & licensed technology.Īdobe's Authorcore was from Sonic Solutions, who had the rights to Daikin's original Scenarist application. but since I don't work for Adobe, that part is only conjectureĪdobe could not have reverse engineered the authorcore & reworked it - not legally. the owner of the core modules that Adobe used inside Encore was sold, and the new owner removed the license, so Adobe could no longer develop EncoreĪdobe then (seemingly) made the decision not to recreate what had been licensed to build an Encore replacement. >It's sad that Adobe has abandoned Encore
This does things even Scenarist cannot manage and works well on Windows 7 (I do not know about W8-10) I also wonder if Adobe would consider talking to Scenarist LLC - they bought the rights to everything back off Rovi, and not only to develop the UHD tools but Scenarist BD and Scenarist SD have also had updates and bugfixes - it is quite possible they would consider redoing the licensing to Adobe again - remember it was Rovi who killed Encore off, not Adobe or Sonic Solutions (as was)įor straight SD, Encore does work reasonably well but if an alternative is wanted people could do very well indeed with Media Chance Labs DVD-Lab Pro 2. It is expensive though unless you have an old copy of DoStudio to upgrade - not sure when it expires but there was a deal to cross grade for $17,000 to Scenarist UHD. Scenarist UHD-BD package has been around for almost a year now, Anne.
I dont there is authoring software for uhd disks yet.
