    I have downloaded a DVD that came in 24 MKV files.
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 00 - DVD Menu 1.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 00 - DVD Menu 2.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 01 - The Doobie Brothers - Listen To The Music.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 02 - Billy Preston - Will It Go Round In Circles.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 03 - Jim Croce - Bad, Bad Leroy Brown.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 04 - Gladys Knight & The Pips Intro.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 05 - Gladys Knight & The Pips - Neither One Of Us.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 06 - T-Rex Intro.mkv
    The Midnight Special 1973 - 07 - T-Rex - Bang-A-Gong (Get It On).mkv
    Etc.
    If this was a store bought DVD I am guessing that the first two files listed above would be the menu that pops up when inserting the DVD into your player. The rest would be the individual video's. As you can see some of the files are intro's and the next file is the actual song.
    My question is with the files that I have can I build the same DVD that you buy at the store. Menu and all?

    I think that DVD Styler allows motion menus, so you might be able to get something similar to the original.
    It depends if the mkv files can be converted into a format that the program can handle.
    In any case, it will require some reading and research on your part although you can probably find YouTube tutorials out there.
