  • Pop up menus with in the main (motion) menu?

    I have been testing out Encore 4 for Bluray authoring and have run into a issue. I have a bunch of Blu Ray discs that have one basic main menu that consists of a few buttons and a video loop as a background. When “Scenes” or “Setup” or “Features” button is selected, a “mini sub menu” pops up above it with the loop in the background continuing to play seamlessly. Can this be done using Encore 4?
    I would greatly appreciate any help on this issue! Thanks in advance!

    Maybe someone else can chime in but I believe Encore only allows one page for their pop-up menus. With this, you wont achieve the same functionality as the discs you see in stores.

    This kind of BD production is still in the hands of seasoned facilities with the right equipment.

    Thanks for the response Eric!

    Does anyone know what software supports this function?

    Right now only Do Studio, Scenarist or Blu Print. Do Studio is somewhat affordable at 5K. The others cost 50K+ to get set up properly. Unless you plan to do lots of this work, the time and money is not worth the price. Best to hire this kind of service out to a third party.

    If you’d like a quote I’d be happy to provide one offlist.

    Does anyone know if this is still the case, or can Encore now offer similar functionality?
