3 Films without Chaptermenus:
Graphical buttons to start the videos,
main menu is shown until a video is selected, videos are played in
sequenze.
The graphical buttons are created from the videos with GFDDSView
(DirectShow). You
will need a MPEG2 codec (from a soft player). If there are problems
with DirectShow, you may use ChapEditGFD (for MPEG2 only) to create the
images. Have a look to example 3: 2 Films with Chaptermenus.
