How to
At first choose a suitable format and a menu theme for your personal video disc.
Then use the editor to customize the disc menu to your needs. Select different menu themes, create subpages in your menu, choose background music and lots more.
A great feature of the editor is that you can edit each menu page individually. Select a different music track or use a different menu theme for each page. Of course you could also use images or videos as background for a menu page. Make your disc menu even more personal by adding photos, texts, different shapes or buttons with different functions.
When you’re happy with your result, burn a DVD or Blu-ray Disc with your videos and the disc menu. Afterwards play the disc on a computer or in a DVD or Blu-ray player and enjoy the perfect design and easy use of your menu.
Wide range of formats
Ashampoo Movie Menu offers different formats for creating a video disc. First of all you can choose between DVD and Blu-ray Disc (720p or 1080p). When creating a video DVD you can choose between two screen formats: widescreen (16:9) and normal screen (4:3).
You should also pick a suitable TV system (PAL or NTSC). But don’t worry. If you’re not sure, just let Ashampoo Movie Menu make the right choice for you. There are several options to save your professional-looking disc menu.
Burn your videos directly on a DVD or Blu-ray Disc or save it on your hard disk at a location of your choice. During the encoding or burning process of your video disc you can always watch the progress via a progress bar and an animation.
