DVD Menu Program

[jambaylaya]

1. Looking for a good program (free or something I'd buy) that can make really good and professional looking DVD menus. I've tried the Ulead Movie Factory 2 as well as the MyDVD programs, but found them lacking in many respects. In particular. I want to have the chapter points on the scene selection menu at particular points, yet be able to change the image that is displayed on the actual button (not just at the beginning of the scene). I also would want back ground music and the ability to make custom background screens as you can in Movie Factory. I don't need to edit the video in any way as I've already done so with Adobe Premiere.

2. Does anyone know how to link the "Timeline Markers" used in the timeline portion in Adobe Premiere to automatic chapter points or scene selection buttons in the DVD menu? I've tried it with both Movie Factory and MyDVD with no luck, yet the Adobe "help" page eludes to the fact that it can be done.

3. I have a Phillips DVD+RW burner on my computer. I am able to burn DVD+RWs but have had no luck burning DVD+Rs. Does that make any sense?

I use DVDit PE, and it allows you to import menus taht you create yourself in Photoshop. That way you can make them as complex or as simple as you like.
