How to add music to Menu's ?

will-3 wrote on 11/18/2003, 9:57 AM

I have 3 menu's in my first DVDA project.
1 - Main Menu with link to Main Feature & Scene Selection
2 - Scene Selection with link to Bonus Clips
3 - Bonus Clips

I would like to have music loop for each of these 3 menu's.

The help file seems to tell me how to add a "link" to a music tract but I just want music playing while the viewer is looking at the Menu's. I will probably use different music on all 3 menu's.

Any help appriceated.

Thanks - Will

When displaying the menu, drag the approriate audio file to the "audio" box in the upper right-hand corner.

Yes....or....click the browse button in the "audio" box in the upper right hand corner and browse to the audio file you want to have played.

Then, you have to set (towards the bottom of the page) wheter it is going to loop or not.

Don't worry about setting the loop time - when it comes to audio it will auto calculate to the entire length of the audio you add. Click the loop box...and whenever your view gets to that menu, that music will start playing.

If you have it set to loop, it will just continue to play as long as the view is on that page.

I shoot stage productions and follow the same procedure as Kameronj. I often take part of a song from the show an render it as an AC3 loop in Vegas for the DVDA menu.
