I am a new member to the forum tonight.

I continue to struggle with the PD 15 menu module:

1) I would like to make a simple HD video using .mt2s format without any menu, chapters or title pages. The video has already been edited and rendered and plays just fine on my computer using a video player utilizing the .mt2s file.

2) Don't want anything fancy, just want the video to startup once inserted into player without menus. I have done it before but can't replicate it now, it has been a few months.

For whatever reason, I guess I have a brain malfunction when it comes to menus in PD 13 and now PD 15. I am having issues doing the most simple functions such as editing a menu etc.

I have been using PD 13 for about 6 months and now upgraded to PD 15 this past week.

Any help or advice on the quickest and easiest way to burn Blue Ray discs in PD 15 is greatly appreciated. I tried finding help on YouTube and Google but not having too much luck.

Thanks in advance. "I believe everything's gonna be alright."

Since PD is so easy to use a brain dysfunction is not allowed.

Try this: In the Create disc/Menu preferences tab select the No menu option. This BD should then work like the one you created in PD13.

Let us know if this helps.

Thank you very much. Yes, I was over analyzing it. I selected no menu but the "review" showed a blue box with an image of my video in it. I thought this was wysiwyg and kept trying to delete the blue background and the image of my video. Sometimes one has to just hit "start" and see what happens.

Yes, it plays exactly as I wanted. "I believe everything's gonna be alright."
