THE MENU

[KAZ]

Hi there i am in mydvd express and going to create a vcd but i do not want the menu screen, does anyone know how to do this? I get the option if it is dvd but noT when it is vcd. Please help.

I have produced a VCD production, when inserting this into my DVD player it just plays the menu screen, tried all the buttons etc.. then what I did was press the stop button and held on to the play button for a short period and it went straight onto the production??

 

This is weird because I produce various of vcd,svcd etc in other softwares and work perfectly fine.

 

I still think its go to be with the burning side of roxio. Don't get me wrong Roxio is wicked, but i still have my doubts on the burn sides, anyone else had any problems etc??

 

I tell you other times when i have copied disc or burn them they would work on some of the dvd players they have used and some of them they dont.

 

And when using another software all my productions work fine all of the dvd players. This is not a moan or groan just an understanding.

VCD is an old format and there are many players that don't support it, especially newer ones. Typically, when you want ot play titles on a VCD disc, you don't navigate and highlight the title then press play, you press the number button that corresponds to the move. So to play the first movie, press the #1, second movie the #2, etc. If it doesn't work that way, check your player's manual.

Thats strange the ones i have tried are new and old and work fine on different burning software etc.. I think it depends on what country you live in aswell as i am from the UK, vcd is still playable on most dvd players, but it still does not make me understand why when i burn on differnt software they play and when doing this on Roxio they do not play??

Not possible for a VCD. That format requires a menu so the user can press the number on the player to play the movie(s). That's provided of course their player will even play a VCD disc. Not too many do anymore.
