Are you sure you're looking at the same thing I hoped I was pointing
you to? DVD-Lab is an authoring program. It is NOT a capture program,
it is not a editing program.
You do all the encoding in advance and present Dvd-Lab with the
MPEG-2 video files and accompanying audio (.AC3, or .MP2).

"all in one" programs, in my opinion, tend to be "jack of all trades
and master of none" - doing many things half well rather than using
better independent programs.
DVD-Lab (and DVD Studio Pro from Apple, and Premiere from Adobe for
windows) are DVD authoring *only* programs - they do not do capture,
encode, edit - there are other programs to do that.
One of my brothers, alas in the windows world, started out trying to
use one of those 'all in one' packages - didn't work well. Tried
a free package - that was a flop, and then bought DVD-Lab and has
been happy (at least I don't hear coasters flying overhead now ;))
Cheers,
Steven Schultz
