<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>This How-To assumes that you have already formatted the videos
in a DVD-compliant format that works with dvdauthor. </span></font></p>

font-family:Arial'>1. CREATING A MENU</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I find this to be the most difficult part of creating a DVD
with a menu. Basically, you have to capture or create a background image
with the appropriate resolution. Then, mplex that together with an audio
file (typically empty sound, though you can use sound) and then create overlay
images that show 1) the menu text, 2) the buttons when highlighted, and 3) the
buttons once selected. You then use spumux to combine the background
video with the overlay menus.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The background image must be saved as JPG and the overlay
images must be PNG with only three colors used (four colors are allowed, but
the transparent background counts as one of those colors). For this
how-to, the background file is called menu.jpg, the menu text is called
menu1.png and the highlighted and selected buttons are the same and called
menu2.png. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>To get a background image, I use avidemux2 and find the
frame that I want to use as a background image. I then save the frame as
menu.jpg by going File -> Save -> Save JPG Image. Or you can create
your own background image in the GIMP. Use the following settings:</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>work for me. If anyone can describe a better way of
doing this, please do.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>A. Open the background menu.jpg file in the GIMP. Add a
transparent layer over the background and mark where you will want the
different buttons to be located. This layer will later be deleted, so it
doesn't have to be clean. When creating this layer, use all the colors
you want to use with your buttons. Remember, no more than three colors.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>B. Delete the Background layer.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>C. Change the image to an indexed color mode. Do this
by right-clicking on the image and selecting Image -> Mode ->
Indexed. Enter "4" in the number of colors.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>D. Create two new layers.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>E. In the top layer, you will enter the text for your
buttons. Select the color you want for your text either in the color
palette or by using the Color Picker Tool. To use the Color Picker, you
must make sure you have that bottom layer selected. Enter the text for
all the buttons on the top layer according to whatever layout you decided on.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>F. Now you will create the actual buttons by drawing boxes
around the text and filling that area with the Color Fill Tool. Be sure
and select the color you want (contrasting to the text) and to create your
boxes in the second from the top layer.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>G. Delete that bottom layer that I told you we would
eventually delete.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>H. Save the current image as menu2.png. Do that by
right-clicking and selecting File -> Save as, and make the name
menu.png. Click "Export" and make sure that "Save
Background Color" and "Save Resolution" are selected.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

0%. Now save the image as menu1.png.</span></font></p>
