Sending your Project to a third party app for DVD Menu creation was created by djnav4

Good Afternoon
I have a question for anyone. As you know FCPX does not have a DVD menu feature, I mean you can't put a menu on the DVD's you create witch is kinda odd to me i know they're eventually going to stop DVD's altogether but until then what can I use? I need this feature whats your suggestion on a good app to use for Menus on a DVD Im thinking on buying Adobe Premiere just to burn the final copy. What about DVD Creator for the Mac is this a good app? or Adobe Premiere? I don't have IDVD on my system I think they either discontinued it because it's not even available in the app store but if you google it you will find that its bundled with ilife something that I don't want.
My system: i7 2.1, 8gigs memory, 1gigATI graphics card using teribit external drives
So if you can let me know what you suggest I will appreciate it thanks

The two option I know is, either find a used copy of the legendary Final Cut Studio which comes with DVD Studio Pro or look into Adobe Encore with Blu-Ray support.

Im not familiar with FCP7 and if I decide to get it is it cheaper now that FCPX is out?

Final Cut Studio 3 (which included FCP 7, DVD Studio Pro) is not for sale any longer.

If you need a super quicky, FCP X > Share > DVD.
If you need basic stuff, Toast 11 Pro.
If you need full feature authoring, Encore.
