Export as an AVI or MPEG then load it into DVDWS2 as regular media. If MPEG that is already DVD compliant then make sure you don't check the "convert to disc template" checkbox on the edit page for each clip. Now the only rendering that will be done is mux'ing the audio and encoding the menus.

haklart,

Actually, you can make chapters in VS9 without thumbnails. When you go to the Add/Edit Chapter menu in Create Disk you should see underneath the box containing the chapters two buttons Show and Hide. Alternatively you can right-click on a thumbnail for three options:

Change Thumbnail
Reset Thumbnail
Show Chapter or Hide Chapter (depending on the current state of the chapter)

Hope this helps,

haklart,

Well, that bites! I haven't used that option yet. Actually, I never paid any attention to it. I'll try it out soon and post again when I do so you'll know what my results are.
