I am trying to create a DVD of some of my work and was wondering if anyone knew how to link to external site if the DVD is played from a CPU, like if they put the disk in and could see a SWF or an HTML, if anyone knows the answer please respond or email me at cmonical4843@hotmail.com

Thank you

Do you need the link to be something accessable from within the movie, or just content on the DVD?

If it's just content specific to when it's placed in the computer, you can create an autorun file that launches the web browser and specifies the link/web site.

If it's something you want within the movie.... Got $600? You can do this with eDVD http://www.sonic.com/products/edvd/default.asp

Ya I have to put some of my web work onto a disk along with some of my media work, so i have videos in one medu and then a DVD-rom section but I would like to find a way to have the user just be able to click the link for the site and then it goes externally out to the net and links to the URL.. Like in Flash if you are famillar with that you can link a SWF to a HTML and it just leaves the movie- or file and externally links to the net and gets the page

How do i make a auto run file I wil try this
