multiple video with the same video-intro/outro?

[Mad_Max_73]

I've to do a dvd with 10 cartoon of Goldrake and I want to keep the video-intro/outro of each episode saving space. How can i recall every time I select an episode, the same intro /outro?

if you use dvd maestro
you add chapter points and play with playlist
you must have the 10 movies in the same timeline (not sure but almost)
Have fun

You have to separet the Intro and Outro from the Movie. If you are using playlist then the physical part of intro/outro is still there and taking up place.
As you know you can use CommandSequences or Dymmy PGCs to link all the elements of your project together.

Let say you are using GPRM0 to check which of the movies has to be played next. Each movie at the start gives a value to GPRM0. You start your project with playing the Intro movie. At the end of Intro movie there is a Command Sequence or List ( deppending of the software you are using). This Cmd seq. looks in the GPRM0 and chooses a movie to be played next deppending of the value in GPRM0.

Intro Movie ->CommandSequence->If GPRM0=0 Jump to CommandSequence "movie1", else go to line 2->if GPRM0=1 jump to CMD "Movie2", else goto line3 .....etc.

GPRM0=0 , the player playes CommandSequence "Movie 1" . The first line of the Cmd "movie1" gives a ny value to GPRM0 and Jump to Movie1 movie. After the Movie1 has been played the player jumps to Outro Movie. At the end of Outro Movie there is a link to the same Command Sequence as we have used before.
It checks the value of GPRM0 and goes to the next line. If the value of GPRM0 = of your statement it jumps to the Movie nr X else it goes to the next line.

not easy...:D

I completly disagree
only playlists are enough with particular
select the chapter points you need to play, that's all.
You just need 10 playlists, that's all.

I don't remember if I had playlist in Scenarist. I have to check it out. But anyway Mad_Max has to learn Command Sequences/List, use of dummy PGC etc. You are <= 0 without it. So Mad_Max if you have time to experiment do it on my way and you gonna learn more than you ever could imagine.
