Hi,
I read your TSCV guide on www.doom9.org
(1) In that guide you mentioned how to create Motion Menus. I had a small question in that but regarding STILL MENUS.
As you made your motion menus by using the MENUGEN button, I understand we can also make a still menu using MENUGEN by putting the umber of frames=1. But if say I have 5 chapter selections in my main menu and want to have thumbnail windows for these selections, then how can I get these thumnails directly poiting to the relevant chapter. In a motion menu, it plays the 400 frames for that chapter but say in the still menu I want the 1st frame or maybe the 29th frame of that chapter to appear in the window for that selection, then how do I select that frame/scene.....
I know this can be done by capturing the bitmaps while playing the movie with say PowerDVD but I think there should be a setting to put the desired thumbnail (without making a separate file for it first) in the windows in the MENU.
2) Also, about the motion menus, if I select 400 frames, does it also play the audio or just the video in the window in the MENU.
