Understanding menus in Adobe Encore DVD


    Unlike a menu in a software application, which is generally a list of options, a menu in a DVD project refers to a full screen with navigation buttons. It can be a form of table of contents for the DVD.

    The main menu in a DVD project is usually the first screen you see when a DVD starts, but a DVD can display other types of menus (or video, for that matter) before leading to the main menu. The startup screen can be a welcome screen, for example, or a screen that allows you to choose the appropriate language. Each of these screens is considered a menu, regardless of how many buttons it contains. Depending upon the complexity of a project, it may contain a single menu or multiple menus.
