I'm trying to do something I thought would be easy, but it isn't.

Here is the situation:
I captured a 40 min DV tape to my PC and that turned into a single big 8 GB file.
Using the timeline panel, I split the file into five clips. So far so good.

I want to end up with a DVD that has a introductory menu with five buttons, where each button selects one of the five clips.

But I can't figure out how to make each clip selectable by a menu item!!!

The Menu creation feature in MyDVD seems to want the menus to point to separate "movies."

Shouldn't it be easy to create a DVD with a menu that points to parts of a big file? I can't figure out how to do that.

Maybe this link can help.
