I want to ask is there a way to copy dvd9 into 2 dvd-5 but preserving the menu and
add a text "PLEASE INSERT DISC 2" or "please insert 1".I have tested few different programs but no one them have the text at end.
Thank you very much.
Trying 100 different ways and cant seem to get what I want. Maybe there is no way?
I have 6 TRACKS but trying to not have all those have their own menu page.
Looking to see if it is possible to have -
----- TITLE (Play and Track menu)
-------- TITLE 2(from clicking Track Menu) - (List all tracks and choose and play from there)
Do I need to set up clips differently during source ?
Should I have only created ONE TRACK and just keep 'ADD FILE' from that point?
Choose to make a custom menu from the menu wizard.
Checkmark the option to create a title page for your top menu. This page will have a Play All and Track button.
Choose "Top menu only" when the option comes up.
Thanks for the reply and help but that doesn't do it.
What I want is 2 menu pages ONLY
One that has the DVD NAME, PLAY ALL and TRACK LIST
The other with ALL TRACKS (from clicking TRACK LIST on previous menu) by name and when one of the links is clicked, it just plays. I don't want i going to another menu page.
The menu I describe does exactly what you want and it is only two pages. Have you even tried it?
Your first page is the title page for the top menu (Play all, Track buttons). You will have to add the DVD name yourself, which is easy--just add a text item to the page.
Your second page is the top menu. This lists all of your tracks. If you select the "TOP MENU ONLY" option, clicking on a track thumbnail will simply play that track and not go to another menu.
I did try it but I think I know what may be the problem. I mentioned this in my first post. I have 6 TRACKS all separate.
Under ADD TRACK I have 6 tracks. I think I should have just done ONE and then from there, click ADD FILE 6 times (adding each clip) and then I would get what I want in the menu. I think I have to do it that way.
It all depends on how you want your clips to be played.
If you want all 6 clips to act like one long movie, then put all the clips into one track. You can then think of each clip as a chapter. After a clip is done playing, it will automatically play the next clip instead of going back to the menu.
If this is what you want, then choose "Track menu only" instead of "Top menu only".
If you want each clip to be its own separate movie so that it goes back to the menu after the clip is done playing, then make a separate track for each clip and choose "Top menu only".
Notice I am at the menu with a PLAY ALL and TRACK MENU
If I click TRACK MENU, I get a menu for CLIP 1 and many link options; to play, go to next clip and so on. http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/2826/20432692.jpg
I do not want that. I want to click TRACK MENU and have a menu page that has all my clips and I can click any one of them from there and just have them play and NOT go to another menu for that clip. Just play.
Does adding the images make more sense now on what I have and what I want?
I see. Yes we're talking about two different things here lol.
Your tracks are set up correctly, it's the layout of your top menu that you need to change.
You're currently using a layout that only has one track per page so it's creating a page for each track. All you need to do is change it to a layout that has 6 tracks per page and you'll have them all on one page.
See the pic below for where to change this in the menu wizard. Any of the "#06" layouts should work for your needs.
The above is simmilar to what I want to do, as I don't like thumbnails on my menu. If you could give a step by step look at how I would:
(a) from a menu picture eof my choice, place a button that would link to the first movie, and then on completion come back to the menu.
I don not want to have, mutible pages or thumbnails. If I can do this Authoring works, will now be regarded as the best in the world.

When trying to save as MPEG file I am stopped with message 'VBV buffer size too large for selected level'. How can I reduce the VBV buffer size so I can save the file? I have tried reducing the picture quality significantly but this makes no difference.
Google the SysInternals utility Process Explorer. (www.sysinternals.com)
After it's opened up, right click on the process and select "Suspend".
Select "Restore" to continue.
This used to drive me nuts also until I found this freebee.
Works perfectly for me!
I have tried to import an AVCHD video clip containing AC3 5.1 channel Audio and when I use the Standard Blu-ray template I can't get any audio other than "stereo". Does this software even have the ability to export 5.1 channel audio ?? whats the point in having "import 5.1 channels" if you can't export them using the Blu-ray template.
At this point, no, it can't encode ac3 5.1. Right now the only output format that supports 5.1 audio is WMV (actually it can go up to 7.1), but that's WMA or whatever WMV uses for audio.
I'm really not sure why they don't just implement dolby 5.1 output; some of their other products have it so adding it to their most popular product seems like a no-brainer.
So if i understand this correctly. If i convert a DVD to MPEG2 I will only get the stereo 2 channel and not the original 5.1 Audio. Is there any software out there that will convert the 5.1 AC3 audio in a DVD to MPEG conversion.
Unfortunately, your only option is finding some way to demux the file, render the Blu-Ray file as "video only," then remux the video and audio after the fact.
Hopefully we'll get 5.1 encoding and/or passthru when this new version comes out in a couple days, but until then, this is your only option.
How fast can I make a 50 minute DVD with Tmpgenc. I am interested in using this product to make DVDs from mpeg-2 files from my Sony hard drive camcorder. The files were shot in Standard Definition /Standard Quality. The files are of sports events. I do not want to edit the files, but simply rearrange the files. I would also like to have each file in its own chapter. I tried this with editors not specific for editing mpeg, but it took forever to get the job done.
It will be very fast since this product does not re-encode your video. However, since it is not an encoder, your source video must be compliant with whatever output format you're going with.
I suggest you download the trial and try it for yourself. I believe you can go through the whole process of creating a test DVD, but the your video must be less than 30 minutes (just a limitation of the trial version).
Can I put the leadtek card in any other slot besides the pci-e1? The reason is that card won't fit in the pci-e1 slot because cooling pipe is in the way.
It can also be plugged into a pci-e x4, x8, and x16 slot, but the x1 slot is the recommended configuration. There are some compatibility issues with some newer Intel chipsets like the X58, but if you don't have one of those, then I don't think you should run into any problems.
I am trying to create a PAL 4:3 DVD from scratch, and having trouble figuring out which resolution my clip should have, so when I author it with TMPGEnc A.W. it comes out right when played on the TV. To simplify my tests, I have created a little avisynth script which creates a small video out of thin air (see below).
What happens right now is that it does not fit on the TV screen. I.e., the red border from the .avs is missing, and the text is having some letters cut off on both sides. I have tried many different settings for the track / clip / video in TMPGenc, to no avail so far.
Anyway, here's that avisynth script. It simply renders some text with a red border. **I am fully aware that the everything will have the wrong aspect ratio** (the text will be skewed) the way I have set it up, the only thing I care about right now is to get the red border smack on the border of the TV screen.
My last (non-working) clip settings are "Aspect ratio: Pixel 12:11 (PAL 4:3)" for the clip and "Aspect Ratio: 4:3" for the track. Obviously, if I decrease the "palW" and "palH" by trial and error, I could likely get it to work correctly, but I would rather understand where the problem is, and which is the correct resolution of my source video, and the correct clip&track settings.
Hello Everyone,
Could i ask you about the premium templates because i can not understand the difference between them and the build ones.I saw a dinamic tamplate.What does it mean?What can it change?
Thanks
I guess they're supposed to be better than the free ones, but I think that's subjective.
Dynamic templates typically have one track/chapter thumbnail with multiple text track/chapter buttons. When you select/mouseover a text button, the thumbnail image changes to show the selected track/chapter. Some of the free templates have dynamic thumbnails; just download those and you'll see what I'm talking about.
How I can uninstall the trial version from my PC cause the software of authoring work 4 doesn't appear in control panel install/uninstall applications.
yes you can.
create a picture "1-7" and replace with "go to first page", create "8-10" and replace with next page, create "11-17" and replace with go to end button...
>yes you can.
>create a picture "1-7" and replace with "go to first page", create "8-10" and replace with next page, create "11-17" and replace with go to end button...
That's assuming you only have a certain amount of chapter pages. If you have more than 4 chapter pages, you wouldn't be able to list them all.
But you are right, it is possible within those restrictions.
