spetrillo Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 When I want to burn an AVi to DVD I used to be able to select a basic menu for the DVD. Now this option seems to be greyed out in 2009. Has anyone seen the same thing, and is there a way to re-enable this? Thanks, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_Hardin Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Pretty vague but I think something is coming through… You should have Video Compilation selected then make sure it is set to a burner that has blank media in it. The OK button will remain inactive until all conditions are met. But it is very shy about telling what condition hasn't been met… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had all the conditions met, and I even burned a DVD properly. Still no menu selection. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_Hardin Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 That is Guru not Genius, big difference. Big!!! Based on your answer I really have absolutely no idea where you are or what you are talking about. How about starting from scratch and go through this step by step in detail?

Based on your answer I really have absolutely no idea where you are or what you are talking about. How about starting from scratch and go through this step by step in detail? No worries...sorry if I wasnt being clear. I am trying to use Video Copy and Convert to take an AVI file and make a DVD out of it. Once I select an AVI to use there is an Options button on the right side of the dialog box, under Destinations. I click on this and an Options dialog box is presented. Under the DVD section you will see a item for Create a Main Menu. In prior versions I used to be able to select this box and it would create a very basic menu for the DVD. Now this is greyed out.

It is greyed out, so you can't select to make a menu. It does work in EMC 10, so it appears to be a bug in Creator 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bimicher Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Thanks for the confirmation Bruce! I have no preblom creating a menu under compilation ... as long as there are at least 2 movies in the compilation. If you only have one movie and you want a menu, you could use myDVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't work in Creator 2009, yet it does work, in EMC 10, hence a bug in 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In both versions the Create Menu option is greyed out if I only add one video file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My EMC 10 build is 100B44B ENU, and it works with 1 movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Nope, it's a v10 only one Bruce. That pc has never had c2009 on it. I wonder if it was introduced thru the 10.1 update.
