  • DVD Scene Selection End Action Option

    Posted by Linda O’connell on December 20, 2012 at 7:05 pm

    I have a scene selection made.

    I did this by going to the main menu, highlightin on my “play all” video, right clicking and hitting “Insert Scene Selection”

    It automatically creates all my scene selections with the chapter titles I gave them before rendering.

    HOWEVER, by doing this when I hit a scene, it doesn’t stop after that scene, it goes to the next one. I tried fooling around with “End Action” but it doesn’t seem to be working.

    Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

    What you want is not really scene selection. Scene selection is for starting a move at a particular scene and watching it until the end. What you need to do is drop the move into your project again and again for as many times as you want buttons (or just copy and paste your original button). Then you need to set the IN and OUT point for each copy of the button that you made. When you select that button, it will only play from the in point to the out point and then return to the menu. DVD Architect is smart enough to only add the physical movie once even though you included it several times to make the buttons.

    I show you how to do this in the VASST Absolute Training for Vegas+DVD, Vol. 3: Getting Started with DVD Architect

    Thanks. I was doing it the way you listed, but this way so easier! I will go back to that way.
