What is an EM file

- Main Use: EM stands for Encore Menu file. EM file is used to store DVD menu templates created using Adobe Encore software. The EM file contains background images, audio and video clips, timespan and loop configuration for the required DVD menu. These EM files can be used in various Encore NCORX disc projects.
- Additional Information: Once EM files are burned onto an optical disc, the designated Encore menu template can be seen when the disc is run on a compatible CD/DVD/Blu-ray player. The EM files also consist of Photoshop PSD files. These PSD files contain the visual graphical related information that is used as the background image on the DVD menu template. This enables the user to customize their own menu graphics using Adobe Photoshop into a PSD file which can then be embedded into the Encore EM file.
