Multiple clips with no menu??

Is there a way of creating a DVD with more than one movie, but with no menu? Or maybe to auto play and bypass the menu? It for a continuous rolling window display.

You may wish to try this:

(for 2 movies)
1. Set Background Media to Movie 1.
2. In the Page Properties enable the Looped option.
3. Insert Menu > Insert Page.
You'll get navigation buttons based on the default theme and will end up in the second menu.
4. Set Background Media to Movie 2.
5. Again, in the Page Properties enable the Looped option (if necessary for this one as well).
You now have two menus acting as movies.
6. Change the navigation buttons to very small ones and place them outside the Action Safe area.

It might be easier just to line them up in Vegas on the timeline, encode, and use single movie option in DVD Architect. However if you do that you won't be able to play individual movie clips. What I would do instead is line them up in Vegas, set markers, encode and import into DVD Architect, set up a main menu with a play button and a scene selection button. That way you could play all the clips in sequence with play button, or go to scene selection menu to play individual clips.
