Adobe Encore (previously "Adobe Encore DVD") is a DVD authoring software tool produced by Adobe Systems and targeted at semi-professional video producers. Files are automatically transcoded to MPEG-2 video and Dolby Digital audio. DVD menus can be created and edited in Adobe Photoshop using special layering techniques. With the new release, it will be sold along with Adobe Premiere Pro CS3.

Licensing

All forms of Adobe Encore use a proprietary licensing system from its developer, Adobe Systems. Versions 1.0 and 1.5 required a separate license fee (rather than making 1.5 available as a free update.) Version 3, also known as CS3, is being sold only in bundle with Premiere CS3.
