DVD Lab Pro Authoring Question

[Tchail]

In DVD Lab Pro, I know that you can add audio to a menu.

But is it possible to have the audo only play once, and then hold on the menu?

Or does it always loop?

Is it possible to put in a delay before the audio loops again?

Any help would be appreciated.

Your only option here is to have 2 menus - 1 with audio 1 without. When the first one is done have it jump to the "audioless" menus - then loop that menu.

You could, with the appropriate tools, add silence to the beginning and/or end of your audio file for a delay.

If your menu is a still menu with audio, the simplest method is to clone the menu, play through the version with audio, then at the end of the audio go the silient version.

You could also look at a delayed menu. It allows you to set a point in a motion menu at which the menu starts looping. Create a short video of your still background, say 10 seconds longer than your audio. Add 10 seconds of silence to the end your audio track. Create a delayed menu with loop point at the start of the silence. It's all in the help files that come with DLP.
