I have tested some of the programs that offer my to create menus etc.

But its now a long time since i deal with dvd productions.
Im looking for a program that dont need my to code stuff.

I have an intro for the dvd and direct it comes to the menu, the intro builds the menu sort of. The menu have a playtime of 30sec and it shall then go back to a point and restart, looping..

This i dont know what program to use. DVD Author 2 coudlnt do this.. it looped the full mpeg file, with intro etc.

The menu is a movie, so invisible buttoms is wanted to be placed over buttoms. I belive i have said much on what i search for, so any suggestions on what program to use?


Menu movie, chapter inserting and if possible subtitle creation.
I tested Adobes program and in it I could write the bsubs direct on the movie in the pre-window and place the text pritty much where ever i wanted, cool feature really.

Translating? =P

well i know basic autoring and with tools from adobe and sony dvd author .. but i feel that perhaps these programs like dvd lab etc perhaps have evalved. should be possible to do keyframes in the menu movie so it will repeat to key .. im thinking like in flash here .. at end frame go and play frame 200 ex ...

so the intro and menu is the same movie but dont want to loop back to frame 1 so the intro shows again ..

This can be done with DVDMaestro (http://www.doom9.org/mpg/maestro.htm) read the menu part with the slider :D
