I use EMC 8 /MY DVD to move videos from digital camcorder tape to disk.  I put the avi file on and chapter it in My DVD and add a preview movie made in cinemagic.  It works fine EXCEPT that you cant just click on the main thumbnail, you have to go to chapter one and click on that to start the play of the main avi.  I would like to add a button to click on the main thumbnail on the main page to start the movie...rather than going to the first page of chapters.  Anyone know how to do this?


thx

No need for multiple postings…

When you create chapters if you don't want the menus, you clear the checkmark by "Create chapter menus" and the will not be created.

Thanks.  wasn't sure where my question was best suited.

I am aware of the option to skip the menus.  However,  I do like to have the menus available...allowing me to pick an individual chapter to go to if I want....  But most times I just want to start the movie.  If I click on the icon, it doesn't go to the movie.  It goes to the first chapter page and then I have to click on chapter 1.

It is like a commercial dvd movie... you can click "Play Movie" or click "chapters"

I don't seem to be able to get that option.

There are ways to do what you want. Take a look at this post:
