Menu Question

Post by Bargon »

I have created a movie that consists of about 10 videos and 5 images. Essentially the images are jpegs created in powerpoint that act as scene separators for the movie. I have tried to create a Menu that let's you start at the image and play the associated movie clips, but I haven't figured out a way to do it. As it stands now, if you click on a "Chapter" from the Menu it only shows the image and does not play the videos after it.

Clear as mud?

Any ideas on how to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

Thanks!

Not too sure; maybe a question of terminology.

When you say you have created a movie, are you importing a single file into WS2 or are you importing each image and clip seperately? If the latter, these are not chapters but titles and it is normal to see what you are seeing, without any modifs. The best way to get round this is to add the image at the start of each video clip in your editor, rather than to have it as a separate entity. Alternatively, open the playlist for the image in Edit and drag the video clip onto it immediately after its own name; this has the disadvantage that there will be a brief pause during the transition from the image to the video.
