I'm using PP5 bundled with my bluray burner. I managed to load some video files but I can't see how to create a disc menu. I can't see a customise option at all.

Is this because I have bundled software or can't PP5 do it all all?

I read the help file and it said to click on the menu below the edit function on the content window but there is no menu there.

Hi merlin,

Have you installed all the menu template packs when you install power producer 5?

You may find them from your install CD.

Or, try to download some from directorzone

Hi merlin,
what kind of customization do you need? change text font and color? or more advanced customization ?

power producer can do some basic menu customization but maybe you need power director to do advance menu customization.

I'm burning several videos to one blu ray so i want a disc menu. Happy with something basic.

I'm told I can make a menu if I choose the customisation menu under the file function. However, there is no such option under the file function.

Since you are using a version bundled with your burner, it's a neutered version, not the regular PP5 package. Several features maybe missing. Menu one of them, DD 5.1 another.....

Did you select "BDAV (For video recording)". if yes, then there is no menu available for BDAV.

You should select "BDMV (With menu)" instead.

wooo-hoooo! sorted!

You'd think they would mention that in the help file, wouldn't you?

Many thanks.
