Thank you for a WONDERFUL DVD Authoring tool! I use it daily, to build DVDs for my Thai English students; a new movie, every week!

Question: is there SOME way to preset the "Sub-Picture Color Lookup Table" ??

Right now, after creating a DVD image with AVStoDVD (using a idx/sub subtitle file), Colors 1 and 3 are set to RED and BLUE, resulting in unreadable subtitles:

I know now, that I can go back, after the fact, with PgcEdit, and set the red (Character) to be a near-white, and set the blue (outline) to be black, but it would be so nice to not have to fix the output files, and have to make the .iso file afterwards....

Here's the log file from a short test I ran, to create the problem video subtitles: Thanks again for this KILLER AP!!!
