Adding menus and sub menus

Hi to everyone

I am new on this forum so I will directly pass onto the problem.

I was making a dvd video of hollywood type and one thing stopped me from achieving this. I previously decided to add menus and sub-menus to my project i.e. one can see the main menu and navigate through the links to watch the whole concert in one time or watch songs individually.
However, I came across that the create chapter menu under the advanced settings menu is inactive. But I checked the create menu box!?! So is it logical that I can't make such sub-chapters after all?

The last thing to add is that my system is a Toshiba laptop (Satellite A200-1BP) and DVD MovieFactory 5 is bundled with my system.

Any help appreciated! Thank you for your time and consideration...

If you did not define any chapters for a clip yet, the option for chapter menus is inactive.

So go back to the first step and define some chapters.

Hi,
I could finally managed to add an additional chapter to my project.After I merge my individual clips together, a customizable menu has appeared. However, I want to have both links for play the whole concert (in fact it resides on the screen but it is a lonely and indistinguishable triangle)and individual songs. For this I wanted to add another menu by re-adding same clips and merged them together but this time the size of the disk increased too much. What do you advise me to do for doing this?

Thank you both for your reply!
