    Hello

    I'm using dvdla to join 2dvd in one.
    I have cretaed THE VGM menu and imported the 2VTS and compiled the dvd.
    However during the film I cannot access to the menu from the remote crontrol as the menu option is not activated.
    And at the end of the film , it does not go to the VGM MENU.
    How can I activate the Menu button and to go to the VGM menu at the end of the film?
    Thank

    Look in the "Connections" window and select the Movie and then look at the bottom of the connections window and you see were it says "End Link" well set this to "VMG Menu 1" and now when the Movie ends it will automaticly go to the VMG menu....

    Also you do not have to Make a Mult-VTS DVD or a VMG menu to Put 2 DVD"s on to One DVD with DVD-Lab...You can use the same VTS and just add another Movie File and extra Menu"s..It makes Navigateing from One Movies Menu"s to the Others Much easier....

    Cheers

    I've tried what you advice me:
    In the "Connections" window and I've selected the Movie and I've looked at the bottom of the connections window when I wanted to setthe 'End Link' to "VMG Menu 1" , I noticed there is no VMG menu1 but there is only root menu.

    Can you help me?
    thank

    Are you sure you have a "VMG Menu 1"??? You know you have to select the "Advanced" Authoring Mode when makeing Multi-VTS DVD??

    When you first start DVDLab it asks you if you want to make a Single VTS DVD or an Advanced Multi-VTS DVD or a Basic One Movie DVD and you have to select the "Advanced" setting....

    if you have made a VMG menu it will say "VMG Menu 1" at the Top Left of the Screen in the "Project" window Like in This Picture....

    I have absolutly no Idea why you can not set it to "VMG Menu 1" as I have no problems setting it up like that on my system....

    You can allways not make a Multi-VST DVD and Put what is Now a VMG menu as a Regular "Menu 1" and then what you have set as Menu 1 now would be Menu 2 ect and the other Movie would be set as "Movie 2"...
    This way when the Movie ends it would go to Menu 1....

    also you can Not Link anything to "VTS 1" because VTS 1 means all the Menu"s and Movies in that VTS so you can Not Link "VTS 1" to "VMG menu 1" but you can Link Movie 1 to VMG Menu 1 (should be able to at least).....

    The only real reason to make a Multi-VTS DVD is if you are Mixing seperate files that have Different Aspect ratio"s or Resolutions...
    For example if you had a File that was 4:3 and one that was 16:9 then you would Put the 4:3 Movie in "VTS 1" and the 16:9 Movie in "VTS 2"....Doing what you are trying to do Doesn"t require you to make a Multi-VTS DVD and Probably makes things More Complicated.....

    Cheers
