Could anyone give me a list that has every DCAU series in order by general chronology, by that I mean don't indicate time periods in which it is just a flashback.
I.E.:
BTAS Season 1
STAS Season 1
........
Batman Beyond
Etc.
Thanks.

Well, BTAS comes first, of course. Then roughly the first season of STAS. The rest of STAS (starting around "World's Finest") runs concurrently with TNBA (i.e. the "revamp" Batman episodes). Then JL and JLU, followed, of course, by Batman Beyond.
As for the bush-league series, Static Shock ran around the same time as JL, and the Zeta Project takes place concurrently with the second half of Batman Beyond, more or less.
And if anyone mentions Teen Titans, I will personally book a flight, get on a plane, fly to their house, ring their doorbell, and, when they answer, beat them with sticks of varying sizes and shapes.

What about such movies as Mystery of the Batwoman, that Phantasm one, Subzero, and the Batman/Superman?
Also which comes frist Batman & Robin or revamped Batman as you called it?

Also which comes frist Batman & Robin or revamped Batman as you called it?Let's see. First of all, Adventures of Batman & Robin was really just the last season of BTAS (before the revamp). So it would go after the rest of BTAS, but before STAS.
Mask of the Phantasm takes place somewhere during BTAS. I like to think it takes place after all of BTAS, because it seems like a good ending, but others might disagree with me on that one.
SubZero takes place after all of BTAS, but before STAS. It was released after BTAS went off the air.
Mystery of the Batwoman seems to take place somewhere during TNBA, or perhaps right after.
And "World's Finest" is just another name for the Batman/Superman movie, so it's actually just 3 episodes of STAS. Watch them in order with the other Superman episodes, and you shouldn't have any problems.
So I guess the final order is:
BTAS
Mask of the Phantasm
Adv. of B&R
SubZero
STAS roughly up to "World's Finest" (AKA The Batman/Superman Movie)
TNBA (AKA the "revamp" episodes, i.e. from "Holiday Knights" onwards) and the remainder of STAS run concurrently
Mystery of the Batwoman
Justice League
JLU
Batman Beyond
BB: Return of the Joker
That should do it. Fone Bone has a great thread where he lists a lot of stuff in order, but it includes flashbacks and events only alluded to in episodes, so that may not be what you're interested in.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who disregards Static Shock when considering continuity. I liked Static's character, but the whole "Bang Baby" Metahuman (Mutant ripoff) shtick never sat well with me. On top of that, most of the villains downright sucked. Anyone who complains about Batman Beyond's villains obviously hasn't watched a season of Static Shock.

I never seen Static but he seems okay from what I seen of his olderself in JLU. Static the series never really looked all that interesting kind of boring, Pokemon boring minus the whole idiot theme of "gotta collect them all".

Here's how I've always viewed the timeline in my mind:
late 20th Century: B:TAS (includes Mask of The Phantasm & Sub-Zero)
early 21st Century: S:TAS & TNBA (includes Mystery of The Batwoman)
(Static Shock seems to be somewhere in the middle here, with early episodes taking place during S:TAS & TNBA, and later episodes taking place during JL...)
early-to-mid 21st Century: JL & JLU
late 21st Century: BB & The Zeta Project (includes Return of The Joker)
Is it perfect? No. :sweat: But it works pretty well for me! :p
