No Discmenu on the DVD

Report · Aug 18, 2017

Hello all,

my name is Peter, i come from germany and my english is not the best

I try since 2 days to create a DVD with some short videos and with a discmenü. When i look the preview in Premiere Elements 15, all is okay, i see the Menu, can change between the videoclips .....

But when i export the project to an ISO file and create then a DVD from this file, the Menu is not on the DVD. When i put the DVD in my Player on the TV, i see no Menu, the DVD starts to play the videoclips automaticly.

Do you have any tipps for me what i am making wrong?

Regards

Peter

When you put the DVD into your computer's disc drive, does your computer open it to a menu page?

Hi Steve,

yes, on my PC the menu will be open.

Last weekend i create a new DVD and this DVD was perfect. The menu wouldt be open on the TV.

But after this, i create a new DVD, other Videoclips, other Discmenu and then, the menu didnt open on the TV but open on the PC. I was confused 😞 I try this disc any times on the TV, but everytime the same: no menu starts. Today, i take the same DVD and try it again on the TV and how can i say: it works! The same DVD who didnt work on weekend!

Now i have no idea. Maybe my DVD Player on TV is defect? I didnt know.

Friendly regards

Peter

Home-burned DVDs use a different process to save their data to disc than commercial DVDs do. And sometimes DVD players have problems reading it.

But, if the disc plays in your computer drive, then the program did its job and created your DVD. The problem is that the DVD player is just having trouble reading it.
