hi folks
i recently purchased DVDit Pro HD 6 for a fairly new startup company that is geared towards making various DVD publications, the first of which requires a large number of titles (its LOADS of slideshows). I'm led to believe that the software only supports up to 99 of these, and indeed as soon as i try to add more than this the software doesnt allow for it. Does anyone out there have any idea of a workaround for this? Is there any technical reason why it cant support in excess of 99 slidesohws?

One solution I was thinking of was to turn all the slideshows into movies, split the movies up into chapters, and try to get my menu buttons to point to specific chapters only. I know this is possible using playlists, but I dont seem to be able to get a playlist to play only a certain chapter then return to the previous menu - without playing through to the end of the movie?!?! I can get it to start at a particular chapter no problem, but getting it to finish at the end of that chapter without playing through to the end of the movie file seems impossible to do ?!?!Hopefully that makes sense.

As im fairly new to this software, any guidance or info would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I believe 99 titles is the limit by DVD standard

it is, but not for Blu-ray, but Roxio didn't want us to be able to do that, or have more buttons on a single menu page, or have "pop-up" menu's, which are supported by Blu-ray but not DVD

hi fellas
thanks for the feedback on this query. Does anyone know of a workaround for this limitation? or a way of getting a slideshow or movie to stop at the end of a particular chapter and go back to an assigned menu?

regards
