I wish to add my own backgrounds to DVDA - tried everything but cannot see how to do this.

Appreciate anyone's help on this.

If you just want to change the background of the menu you're working on, right-click the menu and choose Set Background Media.

If you need to add a file to the Background window for easy access, you have a bit more work ahead of you. All of the assets in the Backgrounds and Buttons windows are pulled from the installed themes. So, to get new buttons and backgrounds into those windows, you need to create some themes and put the graphics you want in there.

If you need to know how to create themes, read the DVD Architect Theme Specifications file. Note that Sony changed where DVD Architect keeps themes since that file was written. Beginning with DVDA 4 (I think), you will find them under Documents and Settings \ [user name] \ Application Data \ Sony \ DVD Architect \ [version number].
