Hi. I'm pretty new to the encoding and authoring sector and even though I've read most threads in this forum, there are some questions left where I could need some help.
So what I want to do is pretty straight forward. I want to play a kind of 'trailer' before the movie starts (like THX or Dolby trailer). I noticed often those 'before the menu' trailers are in the VIDEO_TS.VOB file. Do I need to author this like a normal movie ? or how can I create the correct VIDEO_TS.IFO/BUP/VOB file ?
Secondly as for the movie, I don't want and need a menu. I just want the main movie to start straight after the trailer. As I have only one video and audio track, they can play immediately. Subtitles should be off and could be enable via the remote control ... no need to bother and creating a menu just for the subtitles.
So if I understood the guides right, the movie itself I author with any program, as it's one movie only, I need only one PGC/VTS title.
How should I work on this when the resulting DVD (or DVD Image) should look like this when inserting into DVD player :
Play (or autoplay depending on player) -> Trailer -> Movie without any interaction on the remote ?
Trailer should be in VIDEO_TS.VOB and movie in VTS_01_x.VOB.
Thanks ... any help is welcome ... maybe I overlooked one thread.
