That might be - and I thought he was making it up but I wonder where
Adobe came up with the idea. Is there a conspiracy to confuse folks
going on?

Oh, ok - but that was already known ;)

Or ~6 pixels over the height of the screen. Enough to cause overlays
to not coincide with the menus - which is what the documentation was
talking about.

In broadcast TV studios there is a 720x486 size used. One of my
brothers (who does know about this - perhaps I should ask him what
is going on) corrected me with 720x486 when I mentioned 720x480.
Perhaps the DVD folks had that in mind.
I'll find out the hardway soon enough - but with a -RW disc of course ;)
Cheers,
Steven Schultz
