Hi,
I have a question regarding the creation of intro video. The image posted is the 'Layout' I am working on to Create my Intro. What I am after is that the small 'box' with the mini dinosaur ...I want the image within the box to contain a video of a scene withing the project to display.
How is that accomplished?

James1,
ynotfish (Tony) has demonstrated how to put the video in the box somewhere in the forum.

I will try the search function to see if I can find that post.

An intro video is also known as a first play video. It is a stand alone video that plays as soon as you put a disc into a player. It has nothing to do with the menu you are working with.

You can of, course make a video with that menu (or one similar) and add the dinosaur. And make that a separate video that you add as the first play. .

Anything I post unless stated with a reference is my personal opinion.

Hi Carl and Steve and Tony,
I added solved but not sure if my idea is solved (just a work around) the small TV like box I was hoping to have the first chapter be playing within the TV Box so as if I upload to DZ whom ever downloads will have there fist chapter show, but I am not getting that to work. I have been trying different ways but I don't think they are accomplishing what I wish.
Carl312 I tried a search but couldn't find the post (or a post)...takes me longer to search than to do my experiments LOL).

Hi Jim -

I can't find the rotten thing either!

While I've been fiddling around here, you've nearly solved it!

Is this the sort of thing you're after, Jim? (attached)

Cheers - Tony

Hi Tony,
Well that is what I am after ...I think I got it as you posted tho'...Now if I upload that to DZ will whomever downloads the template get the video in the "box" or would they get the first chapter in the timeline.
