Link video content in other pgc's to the first pgc

[roux]

Hi all,

I’ve got a disc which contains a titleset with multiple pgc’s. I’d like to reauthor this disc with different subtitles. The first pgc contains the main movie. Some cells in the main movie are linked to the other pgc’s in the title set. These pgc’s are some scenes which are part of the special features. They will be played with directors commentary.
My question is, how can I add the other pgc’s (in scenarist)? They aren’t different video content they only are linked to the first pgc.

This picture shows the cell layout to clarify my question:

Simply drop them on the title folder. ;)

I don't know how you want the finished project to look exactly, but be aware, that multi PGC titles won't have a timemap i.e. standalone players won't display a timecode (or if they do, it's only an "assumed" one). Furthermore you won't be able to navigate using the timeslider software players offer.

Thanks that was easier then i thought it would be :)
About the timestamps, i have authored some multi pgc project before and i noticed it. But that was with different video content in each pgc. This original disc played on my computer normal, so i wonder if just links in other pgc’s to the main movie messes up the timestamps.
I shall finish the project and author it, and see whether the timestamps are correct.

No Authoring system can create timemaps for multi PGC titles, because it isn't possible. The Authoring app can only create one timemap per title, and you can't apply one timemap to several videos. So if a timemap is needed (i.e. for the mainmovie as an example) you might consider a different disc layout.
