Sending multiple projects from Vegas to DVD Archit

I thought this was rather simple. Have produced several songs with pictures-saved separately- and would like to send to DVD Achitect to create a DVD with each song being a different chapter. I would like to import them separately into DVD Architect but it is not readily apparent how to do this. When I send rendered project thru wizard it just opens up a new Architect project for each rendered song.

I did this project 2 years ago when DVD architect had problems with Vista so I used -Click to DVD- to do exactly that. Should I even try to use DVD Architect??

You don;t send Projects to DVDA. You send/import rendered files.

The way I would do it:

MyVeg1 > Render MyVeg1.MPG + MyVeg1.AC3

MyVeg2 > Render MyVeg2.MPG + MyVeg2.AC3

MyVeg3 > Render MyVeg3.MPG + MyVeg3.AC3

etc etc . ..

And import/drag them into a DVDA Project. very easy . .even I can do it . .

Now THAT'S if you have 3 veggies with those 3 songs+pics. If you have all 3 songs and pics within ONE Vegas Project then render those out using the Loop Selection. My preference would be to keep it simple and make a separate VEgas project fr each song.

NOW . . that's if I have understood you well enough. IF you have a completed AVI video that you now want to mix and match Stills WITHIN DVDA then that something else.

In any event you do NOT send a Vegas Project to DVDA! - Nuh-uh!

Sounds like KHolle is using the studio versions since those do have a 'send to DVD Architect" feature. The Pro versions don't have this.

However, once one is in DVD Architect with the first item loaded in, it's easy to use the explorer window there to drag additional files into the project. The "send" feature will only get you started with the first. After that it's more manual.

Also problematic is KHolle wants them as 3 separate chapters. What he's got is three separate titles.

Right. Possible solutions include combining into one project in Vegas, or using a music compilation in DVDA.

Unless "chapters" was used loosely and "titles" are acceptable.
