DVD Architect End Action Tip
I’ve always found it very fiddly and tedious to set up, say, 30 clips to play continuous by using the End Action function in DVDA. Well I just discovered that ‘End Action’ can be done with drag-and-drop. Double click the clip name. Drag the next clip (the one you want to link to) into the destination folder box. Done. For me, this is much faster than hunting thru the dropdown list for the destination file. I was able to set up 30 a file project in about a mimute! Maybe everyone knows this – I just stumbled on it after YEARS working with DVDA.

Indeed, that is a much faster and less complicated method.

Have you tried setting up a Playlist? With this you select your video clips from a dropdown list (and can then re-order them if necessary). You then just tie a button on your DVD menu to the playlist and it will play all the items in the list. By doing this, you can “force” the user to watch in a particular order. For me, I create a “credits” video for each of my projects. I don’t want to have “Credits” as an item on the DVD menu, but I would like the viewer to know who did what for the production, so… I put all my video clips and then the credits video into a playlist. The user can still skip this with the stop or fast-forward function, but I like to bury little “treasures” in my credits anyway, so they really should watch.
