August 10, 2015 at 8:13 pm in reply to: DVD Architect 5.2 — Creating a Menu for a CompliationHi Terry. I’m not sure if you already found a solution to your question, however the answer is actually quite simple.
After you have made your chapter markers (in DVD Architect) you should go ahead and insert Scene Selection Menu. When you create this you can play with it by moving chapters to ‘home page’ or to to some other page/submenu. You can also import pre-defined buttons (lower left side of the screen) and link them to your chapters in button properties.
Let me know if I should be more detailed…
Good Luck!

Thanks for further explanation John, I will keep that in mind. To be honest I didn’t have an idea that manufacturers are doing so. I was sure that I was the one doing something wrong!
BTW in most videos that I edit I have at least one .jpg for which I do some border in Photoshop. After rendering I notice that border is almost missing on TV screen. Now I know the answer…

You’re right!

OK, thanks for clarifying that fact! So I guess that after setting the safe area % I would need to test (fine tune) what is actually shown on my TV, right?

It was strange to me as well. Imagine that I rendered 4 times with the same result. I literally went crazy! Afterwards I changed to AVC, which delivered full video. I should finish it in DVD Architect later today.
With MainConcept MPEG2 I tried firstly without loop region checked, then I selected full video in Vegas pro 12 and checked loop region, but I got the same result in output file – 20 mins missing… Then I did the same thing in Vegas 11. All 4 times Vegas reports successful rendering process. I could even see, during the process of rendering, in the preview window, how it renderes those last 20 minutes…At the end I followed your suggestion and redid the job in AVC. Is it normal now that my output video file, rendered in AVC, weighs 11Gb, while in MPEG2 is 18Gb? So far all the projects that I rendered in MPEG2 were arround 20 Gb (90 minutes). Could that influence quality on output video?

A big THANK YOU for the answers, I really appreciate it!
Project that I’m currently rendering in AVC I actually couldn’t render properly in MPEG2 these days. Vegas pro 12 (I also tried on Vegas pro 11) showed that rendering process was successful, while there were 20 minutes missing on the output video file. I tried 4 times: with and without loop regions, in Vegas pro 11 and always the same, always renders 100% while the output video lasts 1:28:00 instead of 1:45:00. Could this have something to do with Windows 8? It’s my first project since I upgraded from Win 7. I did at least 50 projects in the past 2 years and so far I didn’t experience something similar…

Thank you John.
I put a project (100 min) to render today, using Sony AVC/MVC codec with the Blu-ray 1920×1080-50i. What I noticed is the rendering time which is 2x more than using MainConcept MPEG-2’. I hope this is normal.Dusan
