Setting Playlists in Workshop 2

[Peter]

I refer to the new "Playlist" function in DVD Workshop 2
I was very dissapointed to find that I could not "right click" my mouse on the menu and select "play next" or play previous" as on the previous
version of workshop.
I had to go through a complicated proceedure to set playlist and play all titles ect, dragging & dropping the various video files ... with the new system it is very easy to make a mistake.
If ULead think this is an improvement they are wrong.
Person purchasing any software go for the ones which are easiest to use not complicated where it's easy to make a mistake.
I will be checking out other software too now!.
unless anyone knows an easier way.

Hi,

If you need to do a "Playall", you can add a button, and in the playlist for that button hit the "Add Playall Titles" icon (2nd icon from the right in the playlist area).

Right now it might not seem like an improvement (because yopu are used to WS 1.x), but as your authoring projects get more complicated, you will find that the playlist feature will come in handy -- in fact, the more "advanced" authoring packages usually support some sort of "Playlist" functionality (I felt it was something missing from WS 1.x, and am glad they finally added it).

Regards,
George

Hi
I understand what you say and somewhat agree but surly they should have made the "Default" setting to "Play All" as somone like me who just used it as the old version and found that the DVD produced would not play the whole film only the first menu !

Thanks for your input
