Multiple blu ray titles-No menu with AVCHDcoder or MultiAVCHD? |

| This maybe a slight oversight on my end so apologies in advance. I am wanting a very simple and straightforward way to have a static menu (with thumbnails for each title) for a blu ray compilation.
I have 3 blu ray folders, movies only-BDMV and Certificate (already encoded individually-total of 16gb) that i want to put on a single 25gb disc. The progs i mentioned do a 're' encode and although option is there for a menu, i cannot seem to get the menu to be the 1st play action. it always comes up after the very last title as played and literally for just 2-3 seconds and disappears. There are no thumbnails on it either. Should i have encoded the files all at once in the same progs? I play the folders with VLC media player. Any suggestions on what i am doing wrong; i am hoping this is a very simple problem. Many Thanks in advance. |

| Addition: I did try adding all files into progs all at once and still no menu was visible for 1st action. |

| You can't get the menu working if playing with regular video player (like VLC). You need to use Blu-ray/AVCHD player (software or hardware). |

| I have compiled a few titles now with MultiAVCHD. It all seems fine and ready to burn to disc. The folders i have in my compilation are: bdmv, certificate and AVCHD; along with 2 files ('details' and 'multiavchd').
Now to burning to disc. I am going to use Imgburn and set UDF to 2.50. Do i burn just the BDMV and Certificate folders or do i also add the AVCHD folder as well?? This is because it seems to have the chapter thumbnails i think. many Thanks. |

| Correction: Folder is called HDAVCTN. Apologies- its been a long day!!!!!!!! |

| Update: Burnt all 3 folders (BDMV, Certificate and HDAVCTN) to disc and it all seems to work ok on my PS3 with a simple thumbnail menu and then thumbnails for chapters. It took just 14mins to produce a blu-ray compatible file 16gb in size-not bad. Excellent work for author of MultiAVCHD. |

| Thanks :)
edit: About the HDAVCTN folder - it is not required. It stores all title/chapter thumbnails for the current compilation so the next time you import it in multiAVCHD menu creation will be faster (using these existing images, instead of extracting them again). |
