AVID TIP - LOCATORS INTO DVD SP CHAPTER MARKERS

Here is a nice tip for you Avid folks out there who edit with Avid and use DVD SP to make your DVDs. This comes from Evan's Editing Brain Dump blog, and was pointed out to me by Jim of FinalCutUser.

Converting Avid locators into DVD Studio Pro chapter markers.

Still irks me that the Avid software bundle doesn't ship with DVD Authoring software for Macs. It includes one for PCs, but my last three jobs were all on Macs running Avid. Every place had a copy of TOAST for this task. Ehh...it's cheap enough.

ANYWAYS..good tip.
