I'm trying to put 2 separate sets of vacation photos on one DVD. So on the menu page, I want one chapter that says "Hawaii", and the other chapter that says "Vegas". I can set up these 2 chapters, but at the end of the Hawaii chapter, the show continues onto the Vegas chapter. Is there a way that I can stop the show after each chapter and have it return to the menu? Or is there another way that I can do this?

Can you advise what version of Power Director you are using?

I had the same problem version 7. They had to omit this feature because of burning issues.

I'm using PD6.

Hmm...It looks like that function is only "available" in PD7 - available in quotes cause a patch is needed. I'm assuming that there's no way to put 2 separate projects on one DVD, right?

I guess I can always do it the ghetto way, and put a black color board at the end of one chapter. That way, it'll give me some time to reach for the remote and go back to the menu.

I've been testing PD7 for a couple of days now (since I've decided to return Ulead VS11).

The one feature that I would really like is to be able to create a multi title (multi-layered) menu with each title optionally having its own chapters.

I think PowerProducer can do this but I am resisting buying a whole other pkg just for this feature.

Hi Eric,

If you want to have more than one project on a DVD, you can always use a separate burning program where you can just drag your completed files into and then burn, there are many dedicated burning programs available, I and many others do not use Power Director for the burning process, we create a DVD file then burn with Power2Go 6
