DVDA 6 Motion Menus not animated

[ESP1138]

I am using DVD Architect 5.0 and I want my menu thumbnails to play video in motion. I found the setting on the right side where Style can be set to "still" or "animated". Only the first thumbnail button appears in motion. The others are not working. Am I missing something?

I am using a Dell T-7500 with Windows 7.

Are you using 5 or 6?

Did you lasso (select) all the menu thumbnails before changing from still to animated?
Click on each thumbnail and make sure it's set to animated.

Sorry; it is version 6.0. I tried your suggestion of selecting all simultaneously and changing the settings yet it is not working.

It is strange that in another project the menu clips are animated in the main menu.

In this project that is giving me problems, the main menu has text only and sub menus where only the first clip will animate.

I have never encountered this problem before.
Are you using 1 or more video files?
How long is the submenu set to play?

I am using a total of 7 video files for a project. Most are very short except for two which last for 1 hr 25 mins each. It is in one of these two video menus that I am having problems with one.

The video clip buttons have a still frame capture from the marked chapter. When I change them to "animated" those button clips turn black and nothing happens.
I am not sure how long exactly those submenus play; about 30 seconds.

Ok. What steps did you take to create the submenu? Be as detailed as possible.

Because I am new to DVD Architect, I am not all too sure what exactly I did step by step. I decided to remove the problematic video file and reinsert it again. This seems to have solved the problem. There may be a hidden bug in version 6 of DVDA. Thank you Brainiac for trying to help me.

Glad you got it sorted out. Sometimes a redo is all it takes.
