How to loop motion menu background?

[qtranva]

I made a movie clip to use as a dvd menu background. Now, is it possible to make it loop? For now, it just plays till the end and I end up with a blank black background. Granted, I don't think anyone would take a long time to make a selection, but it's nice to have it play contuniously. Thanks for any advice. Oh, I have VS v.9.

Actually, when you add video as background on your menu, its default is set to 30 seconds. If you want to end it less than 30 seconds, you can lower it that matches your video background. It is beside the motion menu checkbox. ^_^

I'm sorry but your reply confused me a little. I'm aware that the 30 seconds default is used for the thumbnails of the movie clips. But I don't think it applies to the clip that's used as the background of the whole menu screen - unless I'm wrong. I can just give it a try and set it longer than 30 seconds. Thanks.

30 seconds is only for motion menu. When you click a clip in the menu template preview screen, that is where you change its thumbnail. ^_^

Ohhh, I thought the default 30 seconds is for the thumbnail. Thanks.
