Not as far as I know.
If the loop point is set to 5 seconds, then this should work and loop the menu from 5 seconds in.
I will try to repro this later today. -
What player?
What TV?
Have you set the opacity correctly in the Menu Colour Set? -
Fullscreen sounds like the player is not picking up the aspect ratio correctly to me.
I have found that Encore 2 is perfectly fine with 16:9 display, even if mixed with 4:3 content.
What is not standard though is the way both players & TV sets handle this.
As an example.
If my old CRT Widescreen set is yturned on & allowed to set itself – all aspect ratio changes happen automatically. As soon as I over-ride one and set it from the remote – it will not switch automatically again until I turn off & back on.
Check the TV/DVD player settings here. -
Did you remember to set a loop point, or is this left at the default value of 00:00:00:00?

Your buring software should do this automatically.
If you are creating a folder from Encore, then avoid Nero as this is one of those that does not set the required gap between the 2 files.
There may be others as well.
If your burning software cannot handle this, then write from Encore as an image – or directly to DVD. -
Just to confuse the issue here, but up to 8 channel LPCM is, in fact, supported by the DVD-Video specifications. It was just never implemented in any player or authoring package though as the bitrate was a maximum of 6.144Mb/sec, leaving very little for Video. It was assumed that nobody would bother, so it got left out in the final implementation.
The DD encoder in Premiere is the finest you will ever see for the money it costs, plus it is fully logo compliant with Dolby Labs, allowing you to use the DD logo on the final disc subject to approval of the encoded stream by Dolby Labs and a signed TMA agreement.
For higher quality, you may also wish to consider the benefits of DTS audio. The encoder as a standalone from SurCode will cost you $500, but is well worth the money.
The quality jump is clearly audible. -
1.0 & 1.5 do not support QT Ref files officially at all!
SOme have found they can import them, but it is not actually supported.
Try the self-contained variety instead.
Version 2.0 does support QT Ref files, but these are transcoded on import.
