How do I create a DVD menu for a slideshow project that I created?

[wsmitty]

I am working on making a photo slideshow dvd. I used a program from arcsoft to create the slideshow. It did a fantastic job. I was able to create chapters and other effects. It saved it already as dvd files. All I have to do is burn it to a dvd and it works fine. The slideshow starts right up.

However, I would like to create a dvd menu to go with it. Like a play all, or go to certain chapter. I am having problems finding the right program (preferrably free) and knowledge. Can anyone help?

You need a dvd authoring application, if you want free ones you can use guifordvdauthor or dvdstyler. But I'm not sure how you will be able to import your current dvd, if it's just a video clip you can easily add it but if not it will be MUCH harder...maybe using dvdremake pro but it's not free.

Have a look at PGCEdit and the list of guides on it's page in our Tools section. There you will find a couple on adding menus to existing DVDs.
