Interactive Menus

Is there a way that I can create an interactive menu (i.e. a play movie button, a set ups button, etc.) using Vegas. I'm trying to create a sports highlight film that has to include a complete game and then highlights. I've recently changed to Vegas from Studio 11 which had this feature but I can't find it in Vegas. Any suggestions?

This is done in DVD Architect, not in Vegas.
Render the game and highlights as separate MPEG-2/AC-3 files, import these into DVD Architect and then set up the main menu as desired.
You are using Vegas Pro and not Vegas Movie Studio, right?

Yes, DVD architect is the program to use.

If you want to see what you can really do with it, go to the VASST.com site and get their DVDA tutorial DVD. It goes over the basic and the advanced options.

We use DVD-A for all our menus and include interactive buttons, transitions between menus, hidden features (one of the favorites with our clients) and lots of other stuff..
