How to Make a Menu

I have a difficult time getting my Somy DivX capable DVD player from seeing a list of the various DivX films I have burned on a DVD disc. Can anyone reccomend a program that will help me put a menu on each disc.

Thanks

 

Is the player Ultra certified? If not such a menu won't work anyway.

 

Thanks for your reply.

I don't know what Ultra Certified means and unfortunately I can't seem to locate the service manual.

I can howerever play DivX disc's from dawn to dusk The problem is that I can't list out all the DivX I have burned onto each disc. If you can advise me of a menu program then I could try it out and see if my plyter is U;tra.

Thanks

 

just a quick question i hope im not insulting your intelligence with this q but you havnt burnt them as a data disc have you? coz wen u say a list lyk how many movies have you got on one disc?

hope i can help

Thanks for your reply.

Yes....I have burnt DivX files as Data.........usually I use Nero.

The average film is about 700 Megs and I burn 4 or 5 to a DVD disc.

In the past I have been converting and burning films as regular Video_TS files,1 per disc and then burning 4 or 5 to another disc as data. (as kind of a back up) It is only recently that I realized that my Sony DVP-NS52P player will play my Data discs. This is great as it saves me a mountain of encoding time ( usually 1.5 hours per film ) using Nero Vision.
The only problem is that on most of these Data discs their is no menu so I can't tell what's there without playing a bit. I admit this is not a colossal problem but it would be nice if I could include some kind of a menu on each disc that could be seen as soon as I put it in my Sony.

Thanks again for your interest.

 

Most players offer a file browser. Good ones (or at least decent firmwares) offer ~36 characters for the file names.

Your player is only HT certified, so no DivX menus.

 

I have a Pioneer DV-383 which plays everything I have thrown at it.
I got it about 5-6 months ago for $120AUD. If I put a dvd I burned a tv series in divX on (as a data disc) I can hit "home menu" and use disc navigation to slect my episode.
I would prefer to be able to make a divX menu though if that is possible, like the ones I use to make for regular dvd format stuff.
Sorry for butting in on your thread dude.

 

Also only HT certified. You could have looked that up yourself though.

Once again, unless a player has Ultra certification, then it can't handle DivX menus. The player's default file browser is as good as it gets.
