Trying to make usable menus and/or chapters

I burned a DVD with 17 music video clips. NOW I would like to add a menu where one can select the song they want to play instead of having to blindly scan through the DVD to find what they want to see.

IS THAT POSSIBLE with Video Pad?

I have tried many things but haven’t been able to get usable chapters or menus..

If a sequence is going to be burnt as a video DVD, chapters can be added to the DVD by setting bookmarks.

  1. First, add bookmarks to your timeline:
    • Control-click the timeline at the position where you would like the chapter separator to be and select Set Bookmark.
    • Change the name and color of the bookmark if you like (this will not affect your DVD chapters), then click OK.
    • Repeat the above steps for every position you want to start a new chapter. Each bookmark will be used as a chapter separator.
  2. Second, choose to export your movie to DVD:
    • Follow the instructions in Saving, Sharing, or Burning a Video to burn a DVD.
    • A dialog will appear, asking if you would like to export your bookmarks as DVD Chapters. Select Use bookmarks as chapters.

How successful this is may depend somewhat on the DVD player.  For more extensive authoring try Express Burn.
