getting video and audio file on one DVD

[Ensign]

Is ther a way to get a video file and many audio (MP3) files on to one DVD.

AND get them to play in a standalone DVD player?

What I would like, if possible, is to have such a disk be placed in a standalone DVD player. And, as with a "regular" DVD, a menu pop up giving the viewer the possibility of picking between the video file and any of the audio (MP3) files.

BTW If this IS possible, then can it be done with NERO 7?

You can encode the mp3 with https://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=Audio_DVD_Creator into a playable DVD.

Use TMPGenc DVDauthor to extract the VOB files from the above and DVD of your choice, and combine them into a DVD with the menu and chapters that you are going to create.

Press play.

1- Make sure that your player can play MP3 format.
2- Is your Audio associated with video, or you have one video and many audio files to play with the same video?

If I'm reading the OP correctly, Ensign wants to have at least one video file, probably in DVD-Video format, BUT have the person playing the disc be able to select the background music from a menu.

Theoretically, I think you could do the whole thing through DVD menus. You wouldn't be able to use separate MP3s and would likely have to have a version of the video encoded with every single song you planned to use, though.

You want a DVD video with several choices of soundtracks?

Just author a disc using the video, and add as many soundtracks as you like as different "languages". You can select them using the audio track button on your remote.

However, standard DVDs don't use MP3 audio, your authoring app may convert it to AC3 for you, or do it yourself with ffmpeg, Besweet, etc.
