  • DVDA 4.5, buttons don’t work

    Posted by Veli-matti Nurminen on November 17, 2008 at 11:27 am

    I’ve rendered and burned a DVD with DVD Architect Pro 4.5. The DVD consists of one menu and several videos which are triggered from the menu. I’ve tried to add a button on the videos (go to menu) but it’s only visible during the playback of the video – not functional.

    The buttons in the main menu work OK but the ones on the videos don’t. Any ideas?

    1.Navigate into the media you want the button.
    2.Add the button
    3.Select button to open the properties window.
    4.Select “Action”
    5.Command
    6.Choose “Link”
    7.Select “Destination” and then link to the desired page.

    You can use the destination item to have it start the menu at a selected loop point you have created.

    Hope this helps if not please let me know. If you have created a button already does it work properly in the program preview?

    That’s exactly what I’ve done. I forgot to mention that the created buttons work in the DVDA preview but do not in the burned DVD.

    OK so now I understand that it does not work after you have burned it to DVD while it does operate correctly in preview window.

    The only experience I have had close to this recently was during the burning process the data corrupted only for certain portions on the DVD. I had burned 25 DVD’S and out of those 8 did not play or got to a point where it just hung. Going back and choosing a slower burning rate helped. Sometimes faster is not better. If you look at the the properties of the DVD drive it will tell you that at faster speeds you may have errors. Other than that I can’t point to any reason for your situation. Try burning one disk at the slower speed and try again.

    Question…Does the burned DVD play properly on the computer?
