No, a no menu creates a loop DVD.

Hi Jerry,

As far as I know....if the "No Menu" choice is selected the DVD will repeat. The only way I know to have it play only once is to have one of the Menus selected.

If there is a way to do what you want using Power Director I will be learning something myself. I don't know of a way to do it.

Ah, well. I'm not the one that has to see it over and over again. Jerry Schwartz

Not sure if it's manditory that it autostart. But you could do this. Make sure your project only has the 1 manditory chapter at the start, no others, then:
1) Go to Create Disc tab
2) Create a new "Create Menu" do nothing and save
3) activate that menu, make sure background music is cleared, and auto menu timeout is not selected
4) move play to center and remove my video title (pic attached)
5) burn, you will have to click play just once and it will play through once and stop and return to the play screen

Edit: If you want you could also remove the "Play" by changing to black color or simply a space, and then you would have a black screen when you put the dvd in the player, hit play on the remote it would play through once and stop.

Good thought, thanks. Jerry Schwartz

I was also looking for a way to create a DVD that would start playing with no menu whatsoever. The "no menu" option seemed the way to go, but in my case, the trail PD9 makes all entries in the "no menu" unavailable except for "Apply to all pages" or "Cancel". Using "Apply" however, does not entirely remove the menu - it gives another menu with a single icon/button to start the movie.

Is there a way to really eliminate any and all menus?

That's what the no menu feature does. When burnt, the disc will play upon insert into a DVD player and will continue to loop play until some user action. There will be no menu at all.

Perhaps the single menu visual you see in PD9 is the blue splash background and DVD wording at the top, this is not actually burnt to the disc.

I use a menu most of the time now, but when I don't I have started placing a message at the end that says, of course "The End". __________________________________

The repeat play function is usually that of the player, by default. Win 10, i7
