Chapter 5: Creating Discs

Disc Menus

Before you burn your movie to a disc, you can add a disc menu for

navigating around your disc. Within the Create Disc window, you can:

• select an existing, pre-designed disc menu template

• make modifications to an existing disc menu template

• create a brand new disc menu template

Note: If you don’t want your disc to contain a disc menu, simply select

Create a disc without a menu. The video will play automatically when the

disc is inserted into a disc player.

All the menu templates within CyberLink PowerDirector are multi-

layered, consisting of a main menu home page with text links to play

your movie, select chapters or turn on subtitles if included on your disc.

Note: The Subtitles page within disc menus will only be available if you

selected Create subtitles for disc when creating subtitles in the Subtitle

Room. See "Subtitles" on page 80 for more information.

Selecting Pre-designed Templates

CyberLink PowerDirector provides you with several stylish pre-

designed templates that you can choose from. These menus have

already been customized for you and may include such features as

motion and menu music.

The menu page templates can be divided into two categories:

• menu templates with clickable chapter thumbnail buttons

• menu templates with clickable chapter text.

Downloading Templates from DirectorZone

If you are looking for additional disc menu templates, you can

download them from the DirectorZone web site by clicking on

within the Template section of the Create Disc window.
