The simplest installation and registration I've seen for a long time, opens up to a clean and simple interface.
After loading a video file it is possible to select from audio track, subtitle, clip and edit functions.
It also remembered when reopened the last folder used to load the video, a pleasant change.
Creating menus also appears to be a simple process, very intuitive in its use.

It's a great pity it only does Blu-ray and not DVDs it's such a pleasure to use.

For anyone new to Blu-Ray... The main advantage of video Blu-Ray discs is that the ones you buy may have a higher bitrate, & thus quality, than any other source you can get your hands on. Importantly, the cheaper blank discs that seem to dominate the market may have a Very short life span -- I've had them go bad sitting on the shelf before they were burned, & reports of read failures after a few months or a year are somewhat common. And, the blanks you buy generally have a softer, film type coating rather than a layer of hard plastic like a DVD, so more care is needed in handling & storage.

It is not as common nowadays since Blu-Ray burners & discs have dropped in price [burners by 50%+ -- discs from $50 to <$1], but DVD blanks are included in the Blu-Ray video spec. You can use 480i or p [same as DVDs], 720p, 1440 x 1080 [anamorphic], & the usual 1080p. You shouldn't exceed the DVD's max bitrate of 9-9.5, but using a good encoder & Blu-Ray spec AVC or mpg2 you can get very nice results on a dual layer DVD. And yes, mpg2 is included in the spec, & while less efficient than AVC at storage, it's also much less processing intensive.

Stand-alone Blu-Ray players can be finicky in the discs they'll play -- older players seem worse than newer. The brand of disc can matter, the burner can matter, the encoding settings used for the video can matter, & the layout of the disc can matter -- regarding the latter, the discs you burn may be recognized as AVCHD rather than Blu-Ray, depending on the authoring software, & that can trigger different playback in the player. For mpg2 I can only suggest encoders that come with a specific Blu-Ray template. The same goes for AVC, though if you use x264 there's a guide here -- www.x264bluray.com .

There's not enough time this morning to really evaluate AnyMP4 Blu-ray Creator -- I'd have to encode the video, have it create the layout, burn it, watch the movie on a couple of players etc., & then that would not really tell me how compatible it was, because I chose my players for high compatibility ratings. Your mileage may vary. That's Not to say don't try it out -- free Blu-Ray authoring apps are a bit rare... the most used AFAIK is multiAVCHD, & that's far from the easiest app to figure out.

I will make a final suggestion... Do NOT upscale your video in software -- the player &/or HDTV should do that just fine, in fact better than software.

Good program as I can see so far, but it not show any DVB Subtiteles and why is it not that? And where can I found working subtitles then?

Broadcast video usually has captioning embedded in the video stream -- to strip it out to use for subs visit videohelp.com & download ccextractor. Depending on the authoring app you're using you might be able to use it in the text form you get, or you might need to turn it into the graphics-based subs used for video DVD & Blu-Ray -- again videohelp.com has a couple of apps or tools for that.

If you record video in Windows Media Center it can get more complicated. Captioning is usually saved in the file, but also may be lost when/if you convert it to DVRMS to work with it. One way to get the captioning or subs out is to use graphedit.

That all said, the main advantage of video Blu-Ray discs is that the ones you buy may have a higher bit rate audio/video [& thus higher quality] than other sources, e.g. streaming &/or broadcast. Many [most?] players, software & boxes, will display subs if they're in the text .srt format, providing they're in the same folder as the video file, & have the same name [just different file name extensions].

The programs offered here are permanent as long as you use them on the computer where the software is installed. If you get a new computer, you won't be able to transfer it. If you wait long enough though, the program might be offered again. It won't include updates so you might want to go into preferences and turn off the check for updates box.
