Here's the link: http://corel.rsys1.net/servlet/website/ResponseForm?JhkLsE3HOLV12z4V1smp tHmLzLnUEqlPpsslFNmtLtDLKN. I think it will do whatever you might need and I think there's a free trial version. It has all kinds of pre-set configurations for outputting to iPod, Youtube, and a truly wide range of other file formats. It will also handle HD video files, such as the ones taken by an early-Christmas-present-to-myself SONY camcorder I just "received". (I also now know, though, from working with those big, hi-rez files, that I need a faster computer, and/or more ram, and/or more/faster HDD's ...) Also, I could be wrong, but I don't recall ever having seen a tool that would author the content-file and include the controls. It is my perception that the controls are part of the player. BTW, I don't own stock or get a commission, but I did use this software to create a very nice DVD last year covering the Middle School Cross Country season at my kids' school, where I'm a volunteer/parent coach. I learned what to do in fits-and-starts, but, at the end, I had a disc with 7 titles/cuts totaling about 50 minutes, with cool content and good music, and both the kids and their parents were pleased with the results. I was too as I think it landed me at least one good additional runner for this past fall. I've already started work on the 2008 sequel "movie", due for release Spring 2009.

I also need the controls like they have on youtube videos. Does anybody recommend a good program for this job?? I have tried a couple but the video was choppy or was missing the controls.
