    Can someone direct me to an "easy to use" program that will allow me to add Menu's to either an AVI or MPEG file before processing through a DVD Authoring program.
    I am using "iuVCR" to capture the AVI thru an AVerDVD EZMaker Video Capture Card.
    I use TMPGEnc Plus to encode to MPEG-2 and TMPGEnc DVD Author 1.6 to write to DVD.
    Now if I could just find a good program for adding menus. I'm in the processing of converting about 20 years of military travel to DVD.
    THANKS,.

    Hmmm...

    DVD Author has a menu creation system built in.

    Why don't you use that?

    [bold]It Didn't Worked For Me!!!!!!![/bold]

    I tried DVD Author 1.6, I created a menu with 2 chapters and re-author the video & audio file to my hard drive. But, when I viewed the files in WinDVD there is no menu.

    On DVD Author "Menu Display settings" I have Main menu & Track menu checked.
    Firstplay action - Display main menu
    Action to take after each track - I have the LOOP statement checked.

    Can any one tell me what I did wrong & why when I insert the DVD the menu does not display?

    Thanks for your help.
