  creating password for a DVD menu in Studio dvvd pro

  Posted by Jean Mathis on October 12, 2011 at 8:06 am

  I just had this request from a client: he wants me to create a DVD with menus locked by a password, so different people with different passwords can access different menus on the same dvd.
  Its there anyway to achieve this with studio dvd pro or do I need to use another software?
  Thanks for helping.

  I was pretty sure that scripting was involved… Thanks for fast accurate answer.

  You should make the client aware that yes this will sorta kinda work on standalone DVD players. However- anyone playing these discs on a computer will be able to easily play any video on the disc by selecting the track directly through their DVD Player software. If you *really* want to control who sees what you should be authoring several different discs and putting only the intended video on each.
