View Full Version : DVDAuthor - Jump from one VTS to the next

Seems all I do is ask questions, sorry about that.
I have two compliant mpeg2 files and I want them to be two different VTS title set things. I can get that to work using the following xml code:


<dvdauthor>
<vmgm>
</vmgm>
<titleset>
<titles>
<pgc>
<vob file="C:\Documents and Settings\James\My Documents\FAVC\Working Folder\T1.mpg" />
</pgc>
</titles>
</titleset>
<titleset>
<titles>
<pgc>
<vob file="C:\Documents and Settings\James\My Documents\FAVC\Working Folder\T2.mpg" />
<post>exit;</post>
</pgc>
</titles>
</titleset>
</dvdauthor>


But when the first title set finishes it just stops. I want it to jump to the next one and play immediately, and I don't want to use a menu. I can't figure this out though. I thought it would be fairly simple. I'd like to use the xml too, not a gui, as I'd like to get my head around it rather than someone else doing that for me. (Apart from you guys that is.) I assume that it's easy to generalise to 3,4,5,6, ... titlesets too?

Well, after going to bed and getting some rest I figured it out really quickly this morning.

<dvdauthor jumppad="on">
<vmgm>
<menus>
<pgc>
<post>jump titleset 1 title 1;</post>
</pgc>
</menus>
</vmgm>
<titleset>
<titles>
<pgc>
<vob file="C:\Documents and Settings\James\My Documents\FAVC\Working Folder\T1.mpg" />
<post>jump titleset 2 title 1;</post>
</pgc>
</titles>
</titleset>
<titleset>
<titles>
<pgc>
<vob file="C:\Documents and Settings\James\My Documents\FAVC\Working Folder\T2.mpg" />
<post>exit;</post>
</pgc>
</titles>
</titleset>
</dvdauthor>


It's easily extendable to more than two titlesets and I've successfully made a dvd with 16:9 AR on one titleset and 4:3 AR on another, which was the aim really.
