My Autoplay Creator Editor's Review

'Power AutoPlay Menu Creator', as shown in the title, is a program that helps you create auto play menus for your CD's and DVD's. If you want to create a auto play menu you will start by selecting a template from the list shown at startup of the program. After selecting the template you will start to work at the project by adding buttons or text boxes. You'll see that there are many features for you to use and some of them are very interesting. Some of its many features are: custom window titles, mouse over effects, interactive objects, shutdown and restart actions, easy testing (press F5 while working at the project to see how it looks till that point), play multimedia files, hot spot support in your menu, internal slide show, timer control to do actions after time, etc.

While testing the program I've tried the 'Virtual Drive Creator' option to test my project without burning it but it didn't work and an error message was displayed. While creating new buttons I've drag and dropped a button outside the template's area and the button disappeared but when I've resized the template's work area it was right where I dropped it. A feature that I like is the 'Auto Save' option wich, if enabled, will save your work in progress every 60 seconds.

The user interface is very well organized and user friendly and, I think you will find it very easy to work with it.

Pluses: It offers many features and they are well organized on in the work area.

Drawbacks / flaws: Some feature don't work and I didn't found the 'Undo' option.

In conclusion: It's a nice program but I think that the producer should pay more attention to the details.
