Ken, I'm sorry, I had no intention of fighting anyone. I was simply under the impression that you might have actually referred to DVD authoring (creation of the disc, chapters, burning etc,but I understand where you are coming from. I completely agree that the terms interpretation completely depends on the used context. I really did not have any intention of stirring up something. I thought there might have been some confusion and I might be able to help resolve the confusion. All is good now ^_^.
