Is there a SDK or other programming capability to set the in/out points for a media title to a given chapter? And yes, I can do it manually, but that gets a bit old with 5-10 DVD projects per week. As background, think of shooting a 20-30 scene event with different performances by different people and folks want to be able to select just their performance or view the whole event.
I am familiar with DVD level programming and prefer to avoid it with the volume of changes I get. I am looking to augment (or fix) the "Insert Scene Selection Menu" command. I am comfortable with the Vegas Pro .NET scripting and really hoped V5 would add that functionality.
As discussed in other posts, there is the capability for:
"Chapter selection Menu", which allow one to select a defined chapter marker and then play to the end of the media. This is the menu set created by the "Insert Scene Selection Menu" command (right-click on a media title)
What I consider the "Scene selection Menu" concept uses multiple references to the same media with distinct in/out points to achieve a "play the chapter" effect.
Thanks, Ira
