How can I make a video music playlist ?

[dragon77]

I have searched everywhere for some info to no avail, i hope someone here can help.
I have a music video file of a concert that i wish to burn to dvd, thats easy.

The help i need is how can i create a menu that gives me the options of playing the whole show and /or just individual tracks ? so that if any track is selected it runs (plays) then returns back to the main menu ?
I can create chapters from the movie but when ever a chapter is selected by default it then runs to the end of the concert.

Anyone any ideas

You can use the "Clone PGC" function of PgcEdit to duplicate your main PGC. Keep the original PGC to play all chapters. In the other one, add a cell command with a LinkTailPGC. Assign this post command to all cells. Whenever a cell has finished playing, the cell command will be executed, and then the post commands. You can therefore return to your main or chapter menu.

Hi dragon77,

You can use the PgcEdit's Clone PGV function as suggested by r0lZ. But if you want to have the neat and ready main menu, submenu with all the control as you mentioned, you need to use a DVD author program such as DVD Lab Pro, DVD Architect, TMPGEnc DVD Author,...

thanks for your answer

Hi, I have looked at pgc edit and yet to figure it out.

I have already used TMPG DVD authour to create my video.
having created the menu with the chapters as the individual tracks can i use the above programme to put in a mark or something at the end of each track ( chapter) to get me back to the main menu.

The aim is to load the video have the main menu play and wait for a track selection, having played just that one track ,go back to the main menu again.

Any help will be much appreciated

Try Sony DVD Architect or DVD Lab Pro. They will create the menu as you mentioned
