Modification 7: Creating Submenus
Submenus are useful if you have lots of different videos under a
broad subject. For example, your DVD might be titled "Vacation,"
with submenus for your various trips (each of which has several
video clips).
You can create a submenu by clicking "Create Submenu" beneath
the main preview area when you are in the Media tab.
You can also break a longer video clip into separate chapters, and
have a submenu created automatically created for the video file,
with new chapter buttons appearing for each chapter break you
set. Here's how:
-
Select the video clip you wish to
break up into smaller segments.
-
Click the Set Chapters tab.
-
Use the playback controls/slider
to go to the point where you
would like to insert a chapter
break.
-
Click "Set Chapter." A chapter
break is inserted.
-
You can also trim the overall
length of the video using the left
and right bracket icons.
