I used the Christmas No. 1 template and modified it by inserting a different background image and changing the button colours and positions. Also changed the text colours etc. I have no first play video, just the first page with "play" and "chapters" and the chapter page with the four buttons and associated text items.
I burned it again using the Christmas No. 1 template unchanged and it works!
However I don't this menu for a DVD about birdwatching.
Does anyone have an idea of where I have gone wrong?
P.S. When modifying the template it opens up with three "items" on the first page, but when you play it, even in preview, there are only two items, "Play" and "Chapters". I find this very confusing but then there are several confusing aspects of PD7, an otherwise excellent program.
Thanks
