I have a strange problem with my project. It has four motion menus and 48 still menus. These still menus are used for filmography and are just linked to each other.

I scessfully compiled this project, but I was not satisfied with text properties and layout, so I edited necessary things, re-rendered motion menus and put them to the project.

Now, when I compile this project, I get only vobs - one with motion menus and one still menu, other other still menus are missing. Another vobs are just film. No ifo and bup files. No error or even warning messages during compilation. "Simulate" menus with "Follow links" turned on works well - no apparent problems with links.

Any clue, how to solve problem? Im I missing something obvious?

Small addition. When I do test compile, the result is different.

I get _menu.vob with only one frame (first still menu), vts_01.vob with two first motion menus, vts_01_1.vob with all four motion menus and vts_01_1.vob with one frame (this vob represents movie).

Things are going more strange. To check the project, I cut off menus from end. When project had only four first menus (all of them motion menus with sound), compile was successful. I added 5th (still) menu (without sound) and got only vob files again.

But then I noticed, that just after generating menus, the message " Muxing audio to still image" appears for very short time. That was strange, because all still menus in this project were without sound. To test it, I added audio to 5th menu - and, voila, compile was successful. Then I added all other still menus and sound to them, and, again, compile was successful.

When I removed sound from all menus, compile got again only vobs and message " Muxing audio to still image" - but now there should be no sound at all!

So, DVD Lab is expecting some sound somewhere, but I checked propertis of all menus and didn't find any sound anywhere. Adding some sound to all still menus makes project working, but this workaround is "No go" for me.

What is most strange, that I compiled this project successfully three times already (without any sound for still menus), but after rendering new motion menus, I got mentioned problem.

Now I'm entirely lost, but this problem seems to be connected to some sound settings, that I can not find.
