Creating my Dvd

[umoja]

I'm new to this and it's my first DVD creation. I'm attempting to make a DVD presentation for my wife's 50th birthday. I started with trying to "Create or Edit DVD project". My project consist of still pictures, music and a video clip. In the Create or Edit DVD project there was no place to add the individual photos, so I went to the "Edit Video" and started with the project adding pictures, music and video clips. After countless hours and days I have the setup of the pictures, music and video complete. Now this is where I need the HELP.

 

1. How can I create or add the clips from this project and place them in the Create DVD project with the nice menu background, or how do I create the menu background with the existing project I already created.

 

2. When I created my project, I made an Intro movie and after that the next submenu is an "unlinked items" and underneath that is the title I created of the clips and video. When I preview the already completed project it will only play the intro movie and then repeat the intro movie again. It will not show the pictures and video clips after the intro movie. I hope this is making sense.

 

3. I tried to go back and create a new dvd but there is only an "add a new movie" and "add slideshow" section. How can I add the still photo clips in Create a DVD that I create from my initial project.

 

4. The extension for the project I create is "dmsd". When I tried to add it as a movie or slideshow the extension is not the the "file types"
