OK, I know the answer to this is going to be simple. I am using DeVeDe to make DVD's. I know how to make two titles to put two video files on the dvd. I was just wondering if anyone knew how to make a title whose only function is to play both of the other two titles. For example, say I had star wars 1 and 2. I want a menu option to play either 1 or 2, and an option to play both back to back. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Wayne

have never used DeVeDe but you can do this to have one complete file
I do know that by using installing Tovid you can use to Todisc to easily make a nice menu with animated chapters and include a button for play back all.

and an installation page because some reason it's not in synaptic

otherwise if you are not afraid the command line. I can give you some codes to combine those two files(as long as they are avi) into 1, using mencoder. Then convert the avi to a audio/video synched mpg to burn to disc.

Just put both of your clips in the same title it should play them one after the other with a 1 second gap between them hopefully. You can also turn off the menu that way it will just start and play all the files you have added. There is a little button just under the left pane on the right hand side, you can alter how it plays the menus using the options in properties. Note this is on the latest versions.

I use "DVD Styler"
You can make 2 menus options one for each film
You can also tell one file to call the other rather than return to the menu
So Episode 1 will play episode 1 and then play 2 after it.
Episode 2 will start from episode 2 then return to the menu when complete.
Nearly what your after.
Hope it helps
