PINNACLE V11: Adding music to the Menu at DVinfo.net

Guy Godwin · April 9th, 2008, 10:27 PM

I have been trying to get some music applied to a menu. However, when I burn the DVD the music is not there.

Does anyone have any idea what could cause this?

Guy, I use Pinnacle Studio 11.1.2 plus.

What music are you trying to add to the menu? Smartsound, Scorefitter, or an MP3 or WAV file?

I have done this in the past using Smartsound, I'd just mark the clip, select and preview the music choice and then "Add to movie" when satisfied.

One thing that might matter. Most menu clips may be too short for Smartsound or Scorefitter. What you hear in preview isn't always what you get in the end. I have always had to stretch out the menu clip anyway just to get a decent "bar" of music to work.

Hope this helps some.
