Importing DVD Studio Pro 2 and DVD Studio Pro 3 Projects into
DVD Studio Pro 4

There are several issues you should be aware of if you are importing projects created in
DVD Studio Pro 2 and DVD Studio Pro 3 into DVD Studio Pro 4. These issues are discussed
in the following sections:

Opening Old Projects

Importing Item Descriptions

Menu and Subtitle Text May Change

DVD Studio Pro 3 Projects Using Custom Transitions That Have Been Moved May Not
Work

Note: DVD Studio Pro 4 cannot import projects from DVD Studio Pro 1.

Opening Old Projects

When you open a project created in DVD Studio Pro 2 or DVD Studio Pro 3 in
DVD Studio Pro 4, a warning appears saying that when you save the project, you will no
longer be able to open it in DVD Studio Pro 2 or DVD Studio Pro 3.

DVD Studio Pro 4 has improved the way text items in menus are handled, which may
cause some menus to look slightly different.
