I don't think it can handle Blu-Ray but I'm not into that at the moment.
DVDSTYLER MENU MUSIC SOFTWARE
There must be other equally capable software around but this one fulfils all I need of it so I haven't looked further. I haven't even scratched the surface of my Studio version but I'm not bothered about incuding fancy effects in my menus, even motion and/or music. I started off with Standard and eventually upgraded to Studio.

DVDSTYLER MENU MUSIC PRO
There were three versions, Standard, Studio and Pro with different levels of capability but I think the cheaper versions are no longer available and you may find the Pro version is more than you want to pay, as well as having much greater capabilities than you'll ever use. It's been around a long time and there hasn't been any further development since I started using it. I guess what they're doing is producing a high quality single file of a project, then importing it into another program of their choice for constructing menus. If they did offer complete flexibility and a box of tools to be used in any conceivable way, then PD would no longer appeal to the average consumer, its rating would plummet, reviewers would say "Too hard to figure out."īUT I've noticed a number of long time PD users who are much more expert than me, often say that they don't use PD's menu program at all, since it's the worst part of the program, with too few choices, a clumsy interface, and with funky results. There's less flexibility than in more sophisticated editing programs, because with more flexibility comes more complexity - and that's not Cyberlink's aim with this program. I don't need "fade in" because the opening of the music is usually already the exact way I want to hear it.īut it's like a lot of things with PD - There are simplified, locked in ways that things work in order to make it all fast and easy for the average consumer to whip together their home videos. I always make sure the "fade out" option is checked so the looping transition is smoothed out. And the music's time limit really is annoying too - You said 90 seconds?- Seems like I'm only getting 30 seconds. I'm also rather sure there isn't a way to prevent the music starting over when you move from the first screen to the chapters. My solution has been to just skip having music after the first splash page. But the fancier ones do keep re-triggering the music. With the simpler ones, the music doesn't re-start like that. Do note that this behavior depends on the menu template you use.

The worst problem is when you're on a chapter menu, and the music starts over every time you hover over a new chapter's button - ARGH!-awful. I am almost positive there's no way around them. Well, Paul - All these issues you describe about music in a DVD menu are exactly the same for me. I'll post more questions if I run into more difficulties.Quote: Having at last mastered (almost) DVD menus, I now have issues with the sound. Second of all, is there a way to preview what this is going to look like before I go through the entire process? I don't want to spend hours waiting for the program to burn to the disk only to find out that I messed it up. There is a button for making it select a chapter, but it is greyed out, so that I can't use it.
DVDSTYLER MENU MUSIC MOVIE
It will only select different titles, which I don't want, since the movie is one title that is split into chapters. But I'm new to this program, so I need a bit of help.įirst of all, when I'm setting up the scene selection menu, I'm having trouble making it so that it selects different chapters. I've got the background for the main menu of one of the movies set up already, and I've got the timestamps for the different chapters.

I'm trying to use DVDStyler to set up menus and such. Okay, so I've been thinking lately that it would be cool to burn some of my fan edits on to DVD's so that I can watch them in my player.
