Hi Alan,

Thanks for your help. This works but the quality of the output video is not as good as when I run it through VirtualDub first to resize it and then render it in Adobe so I will probably continue to do this for the timebeing.

One more question relating to my problem - To make menus etc in Encore is it a requirement to have Photoshop or can you just use bitmaps etc for backgrounds and buttons? Having to buy Premiere, Encore and Photoshop seems a bit much to me for what I need to do...

Thanks again
Jon
