Linking slideshows and movies in EMC 9

[netts]

I am trying to link all the things on my menu (slideshows and movies) to play as one continous production. I have gone to View>Settings and then Link, but I do not understand what I should type in for GO TO: and PLAY FROM: and AFTER PLAYING: I don't understand what these buttons mean. I wish they would just have BEGIN WITH: and END WITH: Can you help?

 

I also have another question. On Project View the buttons are out of order, but on the menu screen they are in the order that I would like them to play. I presume that the order of the buttons in Project View is the order that they will play. Is that correct? If yes, how can I rearrange the buttons in Project View so that they will play in the order I choose?

 

Thanks!

First and foremost please understand that I am not a guru but a rookie or newbie like yourself. However I have been able to link movies on my menu. In "Go to" I suggest you select "play all movies on the menu" or "play all movies in the project". In "After playing" choose the first movie/item in your menu. I can not help with "Play from" but I have been able to link movies without fooling with it. I am not sure whether it is necessary or not but I also go to "File" > "Project Settings" and choose "play movie and all remaining movies" instead of "play movie only.

I believe there are buttons at the bottom of Project view" which, after selecting a movie above, you can "move up" or "move down".

I hope this helps and does not hinder.
