MyDVD Menu audio

[holtz]

Have a question..... I've added a 32 sec wav file to a DVD menu to replace the background audio. At 20 seconds, the program clips it and repeats from the beginning.

Has anybody added background audio that is longer than 20 seconds?? What format did you use??

Thanks

I have the same problem. I would like to use a full 4 minute song. Did you manage to solve this?

I did it but I can only give you generalities as I am at work and not at my home computer. I selected an animated background from the ones that come with the project. It loops for 10 seconds. Like you, I replaced the audio with a clip that was about 30 seconds long. The sound loops with the animation so you only hear the first 10 seconds of it.

 

I found a menu option that allowed you to customize or edit the background animation. It opened in a window similar to the video editing window. It showed the graphic and a timeline. I simply copied and pasted the existing graphic into enough blocks on the time line to cause it to be 30 seconds long. I saved this as a custom background. I then replaced the existing background with this custom one. When previewed it looped for 30 seconds. I then added my 30 second audio file to it.

 

That's it in a nutshell. I am sorry that I don't have detailed step-by-step for you. Hopefully, it will be enough.

I don't know if the MyDVD software you have works in a similar fashion to MyDVD included in Roxio software suite (such as Easy Media Creator 9 or 10). Here is a tip regarding MyDVD included in EMC 9 suite.
