I have the next generations episodes on dvd and I am trying to put two eps onto one dvd-r, I have found that the easiest way is to stream process the m2v and ac3 out of each pgc in smartripper 2.41 and then simply add them to dvdit pe. unfortunately dvdit pe only accepts 2ch ac3 files. So in comes maestro to the rescue. But I don't know how to make a simple menu with only two buttons, one for each episode. and I want it to go to the menu when done with each episode.
Can somebody help me with this. If someone knows if I could just create/find a template to use with each disc I would love to hear about it.

Thanx in advance for any help anybody could provide.

you can just make something in photoshop or take a screen shot of the moving playing with power dvd. It will save it as a bitmap.

Import your picture into Maestro. Click on menu 1 drag th e pic up to there. Now simply draw asquare around one of the buttons you drew.

Right click that and have it go to movie 1

Draw a square around the other button right click it have it go to movie 2

now click on the command sequences. Here where it says first play right click on target and have it go to your menu. right click the target for movie where it says end action and have it go to the menu to go to the menu when the movie is done playing. Maestro is so easy to use.
