    I have clients who simply want their video on DVD. They don’t want to hear about authoring.

    My response has been to give away the authoring. Ouch. I make a quick easy menu, rationalizing that I’m learning something….

    But enough of that.

    Is there anything wrong, as far as playability on a variety of DVD players, with simply importing assets as timeline, setting timeline to First Play, and leaving the rest alone?

    When I Check Project, I get these error messages:

    (under the symbol for the timeline)
    Menu Remote not set
    End Action not set
    (under the symbol for the disk)
    Title Remote not set

    Can I disregard these?

    [Bob Cole] “Can I disregard these?”

    You can. 🙂 It means that with that DVD, the “title” and “menu” buttons on the player’s remote control won’t have a function and that at the end of the video the player will just stop.

    Even quicker: If you are editing in Premiere Pro you could also export the timeline directly to a DVD without menu.

    Thanks. It works just fine. I toyed with the idea of putting in a black menu with an invisible button. But no menu at all works well.

    Another thought – If you can, set the End Action, Menu Remote, and Title Button Links to play your Timeline from the beginning?
