No option for DVD workshop in DVD menu plugin for PI12

Post by milan_np »

I wonder if I can use DVD menu created with PI12 with DVD workshop 2 as there are only 2 options (for DVD Movie Factory and Video Studio) in the plug-in screen.

Yes you can with the exception of smartscene menus which will only work with VideoStudio or MovieFactory.

Hello,
I want to use smartscene menus with DVDWORKSHOP 2.
I try to "transfer" a smartscene menu from CVSX4 to DVDWS2.
Ok, it has been transfered sucessfully, but it is only a still menu, no SMARTSCENE WITH MOTION PATHS of the navigation battons e.t.c.
Is there a way to "make" DVDWS2 to RECOGNIZE the smartscene menus (.ini file) like CVSX4?

Many thanks

I really doubt it. As you may know already, DVD Workshop is now a very old program, written well before SmartScene menus were developed in Video Studio. Moreover, Workshop has been dropped by Corel as a program -- much to the regret of many of us here -- so no work has been done on it for years. So unless some user has found a way around the ini files, as you suggest, it is unlikely that you will be able to achieve what you are after.
