DVD Lab Questions

[Peplogic]

Question...

1: How do you link a Movie file to First play? Do you have to redo the connections and then ad Movie Menus? Or do you Click and Drag your movie from the Asset bin to the First Play logo on the connection screen?

2: When I have multiple Chapter screens and I burn them to DVD they are coming out in reverse order...is there something I need to check to make sure the chapter screens are in the correct order?

3: IF I wanted to make a Flash or SHockwave presentation with my company blurb on it......can I import a Flash, or Shcokwave file to acomplish this!?!@

Thanks

1. Add New Movie, drag your movie file into it. In the connections window, click on the " + " button and drag a connection from "First Play" to the left side of your movie file.

3. I don't think so, unless you exported it as an .avi file and then converted to a dvd-compliant file.

2. If you are menu edit mode, right click on an object, and you get the option to set as first first button. If you do it, it becomes first button, and others are all renumbered. The numbers are in little yellow boxes next to the buttons. If you do another one, it becomes 1, and the old 1 becomes 2. You can keep going, and renumber you whole menu this way.

2) Are you saying that the chapter menus are in reverse order? If so, then it's how they were linked together by you. Make sure you didn't link them backwards.

I used the Chapter wizard and template to come with the menus....the wizard split them up to two menus and then linked them...i didnt find out that they wree linked backward till i burned........

I was looking for some dvd lab info the other day, and saw a post describing the problem you had. Seems like there is a bug in dvd lab, and sometimes the chapter wizard does not work right. I guess you need to check the wizard's output before you compile.
