I am running Adobe Premiere Elements 2020, v18.0 on a Mac running OS Catalina. The Movie Menu option/tool is missing In Expert Mode, Tools, Video.
What can be done to get the Movie Menu Tool back into the Video Tools dropdown??

Correct answer Steve Grisetti

The best solution is to output your video from Premiere Elements using Export & Share/Devices/Computer/720x480 MPEG-PS and then use a program like iDVD to build that video into a DVD with menus. (Adobe no longer makes a DVD or BluRay production progam.)

Steve's solution is not the best solution.  Adobe Premier Elements used to include a Movie Menu that worked spectacularly. It's now a pain to create videos on a Mac.  Adobe's deletion of the Movie Menu from Premier Elements now requires you to create a movie in Premier Pro or Premier Elements, export the movie, then, because Macs no longer have DVD burners, take the exported file to another machine that has both a third party video authoring program (that Premier Elements used to have!) and a DVD burner.  Sometimes upgrades aren't really upgrades.

Movie menus are for DVDs and Blu-Rays.  Starting with version 2020, Premiere Elements doesn't do those, so there are no movie menus.  The Windows version can still make DVDs, but not Blu-Rays.

Thanks for the reply.

Is there an Adobe (or other vendor) product that will allow a Mac user to create DVD’s with Menus and Chapter Markers???

Hi

 

Just discovered I cannot burn a DVD in V20!

If I generate a file exported from V20 can that be imported into an older version to burn it? I am usng a MAC

PS Apart from this, V20 so far is very good. Lots of niggles fixed!
