Destination: Setup
Destination item: Start
Destination button: 4: Link – Video File

The destination essentially is the “Play Movie” button on my menu. By setting the destination button to the video itself, rather than a link, I’ve been able to succesfully create a Setup menu in which there’s a button for “Play Movie with English Subtitles” and one for “Play Movie with Polish Subtitles.” However, that’s not what I want.

What I’m going for is a traditional Setup menu, like you see in commercial DVD’s. In other words, a Setup menu that allows you to go to a Scene Selection menu before playing the movie.

In such a menu, there’s also an icon next to your choice: English Subtitles, Polish Subtitles, or No Subtitles. I’m able to do this in DVD Workshop by cloning the Setup menu adding an icon to the desired position next to the button in the cloned menu, and dragging a subtitle selection item into the playlist window for the button.

In DVDA 4, I can’t figure out how to clone a menu… or if there’s another way of accomplishing the same thing. And, of course, I can’t figure out how to leave open the Scene Selection option after choosing a subtitle. Your help is appreciated.

Thanks. That solved the problem. Vegas rendered the MPEG-2 file so it appears almost identical to the one encoded by TMPGEnc. There may be a slight washing out of some subtler colors, but it’s hardly detectable.
