carrying markers through to DVDA

[John Rofrano]

The names should have come across with the markers. Something went wrong here. What versions of Vegas and DVD Architect are you using? Exactly how did you render to get the markers to show up (what options did you use)?

Hi John

I am using Vegas Pro 8.0c build 260 and DVDA Pro 5.0b build 180.

When rendering I am using separate MPEG 2 and AC3 renders, with only the “Save Project Markers in Media File” box ticked within the “Render As” menu.

Yet on the final DVD, chapters are only displaying as “Chapter 1”, “Chapter 2” and so on, not with the names I have used in Vegas.

Let me know if you need further info.

Mike, if what you’re looking for is the name on the menu screen(s) when you add the file(s) to the timeline, I’ve never gotten that.
The chapter names show up in the DVDA timeline but I still have to do a copy/paste to get the name(s) on the menu screen(s).

Thanks for your reply Mike

What I want is the marker “names” to be displayed in the title menu or root menu of a DVD player when the disc is played. I would have thought these names (as typed into the marker box when a marker is created) would carry through to the DVD when burnt, but maybe I’m expecting too much.

Do I need to recreate the markers in DVDA (or not create them at all until DVDA) to get the chapter names to appear?

The names get displayed as chapter names when you use Insert Scene Selection Menu. They will never display on a root menu because they are scenes.
