DVDA Continuing chapters

My problem is this...I have rendered a project .avi, opened it in DVDA and now I am attempting to add to it. I have got it to play chapter by chapter with the first .avi, but I cannot get it to keep playing the second .avi directly after. I have a play entire movie button...and a scene selector button that takes me to the individual scenes...I tried to just add the new .avi to the next spot on the individual scenes but it always stops after the first .avi and goes to the main menu. I would appreciate the help. It seems that there should be a simple solution...thanks!!

There isn't.

There isn't a simple solution....that is.

DVDA does not support (currently) end actions.

Do a search for end actions. Topic covered about a gazillion times.

I guess my REAL problem is my folders will only hold 4 GB or less for some dang reason...can't figure out how to change this. Could it be because my disk is Fat32?? I need to format C: and change to NTFS. Agree? Disagree? Help!!

Thanks...I'll read up on that. In the meantime I'll be re-formatting :(

Fat32 can't go over 4 gb....yes, you are right on that.

It'll fix the 4 GB limit but will not change the fact that you cannot control end actions which is what you need to do what you want,

To do what you want, you need ONE large file with the complete video. To do that, you cannot use FAT32. However, you don't have to reformat to get NTFS - it can simply be converted. BUT... you MUST be running Win2K or WinXP. Win98 and WinMe will not read NTFS formatted disks.

I see...no endpoint actions yet...this is my first week with vegas...what a great week!

Thanks for the help...

Ahh...that's great news. Didn't realize that it could be converted easily like that. Save me a lot of time. Thanks.
