Convert X to DVD - preview videos show not correct video

[mirage0101]

Hi,

after working a couple of days full time to create my DVD with mulitple videos of my little kid running around th last year I noticed the preview videos are not showing the same video as it should:

I have 5 video's per screen. Each video had a date e.g. Jan 30th 2010. the next video has E.g. Jan. 31st and the next one Feb 5th. Behind this date, there is a preview video which should show a preview of the video that is embedded there. Unfortunately the previews do not show the same video as the embedded one. E.g. the preview of the video of Jan 31st shows Feb 5th. etc.

Anyone knows what I am doing wrong? I know I can hardcoded link the video to the right one, but I thought the previews standard shows the preview of that specific embedded video?

I hope it makes sense What I wrote above. Hard to explain Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have done some extra test and have indicated the exact problem.

When the preview videos (miniatures) are relative short it looks like the final seconds of the preview video are the first seconds of a next or previous preview video. This looks very sloppy. I expect (or at least wanna test if) it gets solved by making the preview videos shorter. Do you know if in Convert X to DVD there is a possibility to change the length of the preview video?


Thanks. I put so much effort in this project, and now it looks sloppy ...

Thanks for this Surfmonkee. I’ve read and checked these forums. For a newbee like me it is still not completely clear. Can anyone confirm to me that the small preview videos (is that the ‘title menu - buttons?) consist of an intro, a loop and an outro?

It says: “The outro part is played only after a menu selection is made.” Like I wrote above it bothers to me the last 2 seconds of my preview videos shows a different movie. (It’s the one before or after the selected video). Then I assume this is the outro that is being played, that bothers me. Should the outro display the same video? It there a way to make sure the outro isn’t played? Does anyone how it is possible that the outro displays a different video than the intro and main (/looping) video.

Tnx.
