Linking Chapter Markerst

I have combed through the Architect manual and can't find this.

I have a concert video all on one two hour mpeg2.

I want to start my DVD with a one minute motion menu (a clip from the concert), and in the same menu, I'd like to offer the viewer a "play" button, and a "chapters" button.

If the viewer clicks on "play," the video starts from the beginning.

If the viewer clicks on "chapters," a second menu appears that lists all fifteen songs featured in the concert video.

I want to link each song to its corresponding chapter marker, so the viewer can simply click on that song title and begin viewing that particular song.

However, I don't want to break up the video into separate clips, for fear there will be slight pauses between tracks when the DVD is allowed to play continually from track to track.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

Randy

You can set In AND Out points for the "chapters" which shouldn't affect the "complete" button.

If you right click on your play all/movie button (assuming you have already made all your chapter marks) you can choose the option to create a 'scene selection' menu--which I believe will do what you want it to.

Sure enough, the "scene selection menu" option did the trick.

Thanks,
