I am trying to create a new DVD menu for a video we made for work. I do not want sub menues, just a root menu with the 4 chapters we are using for the disk. Is this possible?

Can you change the size of the thumb nail shown? It is too small to show the image we are have choosen from each chapter. Why did they design the thumbnails to be smaller than the screen you are picking an image from?



Thanks,

No. You must upgrade to PD13 for the no root menu feature. Thumbnails can be any size you want.

OK, thanks. The 2 DVD long video has all been edited in PD 12. It is my understanding from prior verisions of this software that you cannot move a project from one edition to the other? (I started with edition 8...) We are not going to re-edit 50 hours of footage for this.

Maybe the next project will be done on 13?

PD13 is compatitle with PD12 projects. You could download and install the trial of PD13 and see if it suits your needs. What you probably meant to say is that PD projects created with newer versions of PD can't be used in older versions of PD. You should save your PD12 project under a slightly different filename before importing them to PD13. This way you have a backup of PD12 projects should you decide not to buy PD13 after your 30 day trial is over.
