Encore video thumbnail problem

Post by Syras »

i'm trying to make a scene selection menu for my dvd and i want to make it so that when you mouse over or select a button it displays a video clip of that scene in a window to the side. i've built and programmed the buttons and window in photoshop but i dont know how to make one window display a different clip when you select a different button/scene.

eg:


scene 1 = scene 1 footage
scene 2 = scene 2 footage

both are displayed on same window but seperately

So you want a menu, of let's just say chapers 1 - 6 of your movie. Then each chapter is represented by a still picture. Then when you go to 'mouse' or select it with the remote an animated thumbnail appears next to that still image and starts playing / loopng until you select something else? Then that selection would do the same thing... am i getting that right? I dont think that it's possible with encore. When you select or 'mouse over ' a link, it displays whatever you set as you button highlight, which is a static image. I think the only thing that you could do it put the name of the scene and then when you select it by mousing over it or selecting it with the remote it would pop up a still image of the scene.

I dont think it's possible to make animated button highlights in Encore.
