I have two 16:9 titles, one 4:3 title, and a single menu with three items for selecting the titles. I'm not sure how to structure the items.

DVDAuthorGUI puts all three titles together in a single titleset and makes a titleset menu. The problem with this is that the 4:3 title is played back as 16:9.

I tried putting each title in a separate titleset and making a VMGM menu. The titles play back in the correct aspect ratio, but when I press the "Menu" button on my DVD player to return to the menu, it tells me "Invalid command." I guess it's because it's looking for a titleset menu but there isn't one?

I'm guessing I could fix the problem by making a titleset menu for each titleset, but it seems silly to me to have a top level menu that selects a title, then a titleset menu that just has a "Play" item. I would really rather have only one menu.

Any suggestions?

why don't you just have a single menu (either in video manager or in the 1st vts) and put a pre command into other VTS's menus that jump into your main menu?
