Disc menu in Premiere Elements 7

I'm using Elements 7 and I'm trying to use Blossoms in the disc menus in the Wedding category. The Scene page has a default of 6 thumbnails on one Scene page that are fairly close together. I'd like to make it have only three thumbnails and make it have two pages. I can't find anyway to do that. I'd also like to be able to have two lines under the thumbnail and it will only stretch horizontally Any help?
Thanks,
Bruce

Unfortunately, you've posted in the old Premiere sub-forum. This is for a program, that is the pre-cursor of PrPro.
The PrElements forum is here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premiere_elements
As for customizing PrE Menu Sets, there are some very important considerations and conventions that must be addressed.
You will need Photoshop, or PhotoshopElements (maybe, but perhaps with limitations).
Never work on the original Library material, but ONLY on Copies, and place them in a separate folder, within the DVD Library folder hierarchy.
See the discussion, linked in this ARTICLE, for some considerations, instructions and warnings.
Good luck,

    Come regolare il volume dei menu in premiere elements 10 ????

    HI
    Thanks for the reply, but I also think that there is nothing you can do to adjust the volume of the menu in Premiere Elements 10 OS windos 7.
    I'll try to do what I say and then we'll see the result.
    Even to thank you for the response,
    and good day

  • Can I import a menu from Premiere elements 7(the Popcorn menu) into Encore CS4?

    Can I import a menu from Premiere elements 7(the Popcorn menu) into Encore CS4?
    If so how do I accomplish this act?
    Are their additional menus available for Encore CS4?

    The Menus in PrE are in Menu Sets. Each set is a Main Menu and a Scene Selection Menu. As PrE does the authoring semi-automatically, there are many "extras" in those PSD's, in the Button Layer Sets. All you have to do is make a Copy of your two Menus into a separate folder, so that you do not worry about messing up your Menu Sets in PrE. I'd do this in a new sub-folder in the Encore Library folder hierarchy. Then, Open each of these two Menus in PS. Go in and clean out all of the other languages for the Text and Button Text. Match the Layer Set/Button Layer Set names to those naming conventions in the Encore Library Menus, as you will not be getting any semi-automation. Where you do not need, say a Next Button, just eliminate that Button's Layer Set. Remember, PrE will do this semi-automatically, plus will give you the number of Scene Selection Menus, that your Project calls for - Encore will not. You must count the Scenes, divide by the number of Buttons on that Scene Selection Menu, and do Copies of that Menu, to accommodate what you require.
    As for Encore, it comes with a full compliment of Menus, Buttons, and other Assets, like EM files (Templates), with Motion and Audio Assets. All can be completely customized in PS. Note: in PSElements, I do not believe that you can create Layer Sets, so that will be a limitation. The full PS has no limitations, with the single exception that to change Button Sub-picture Highlight colors, this must be done in Encore's Menu Editor, unless it's been added to PS CS5.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - remember, work on Copies of the two Menus in the PrE Menu Set, and NOT on the originals, or you will be doing a Repair Install to get those back.

  • No Menu with Premiere Elements 12

    after install and open it up okay, there was no menu (eg file edit tool etc...).
    so that means it is difficult to shut down correctly and also
    difficult to navigate as it is better for me to have everything in the right place (eg menus)
    I run windows 8.1 and Photoshop elements 12 too no problems here menus are okay where they should be.
    appreciate some help.

    Just a few extra questions
    1. Does your computer use any of the Windows High Contrast Themes?
    2. What is your computer's video card/graphics card? Is it up to date according to the web site of the
    manufacturer of the card? Do you have 1 or 2 cards?
    3. What is the native resolution of your computer's monitor and is the display set at that? Are you running a dual
    monitor system? Are you on a business or school network?
    4. Under Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization Display
    What are the sets for
    "Change the size of all items" - gives a scale of small to large
    and
    "Change only the text size" - gives a place to select where the text is, like Menus, a place for font size, and a check off
    place for Bold.
    Please consider, and then let us know if any of the above has any impact on your lack of program menus.
    Thanks.

  • Bad quality movie menu in Premiere Elements 12

    Hi everybody,
    I have a serious problem... when I create a movie menu and then I click on preview, its quality is really bad, images and text as well! I tried to burn the DVD to see if it was just a preview problem but it's still the same. I've also installed the software on another PC but nothing changed. How can I solve it?
    Please help me! Thank you very much in advance!

    dpiras87
    Do not give up.
    Just to verify....where is the burn to process stopping....
    Encoding menus 1 of....
    Encoding media
    Compiling media
    Burning
    Go back to the Timeline content...
    a. Make sure that none of the Timeline markers are too close to one another. If you have a stop marker at the end of
    the last item on the Timeline, remove it. It is not needed and causes burn to issues.
    Go back to the Movie Menu customization area and inspect the buttons on the main menu and scene menu pages.
    a. Make sure that area of one button is not overlapping with the area of another. If overlapping of buttons exists, you
    will see red frames around the buttons involved.
    Go back to the Timeline content again...this time
    a. press the End Key of the computer main keyboard....does the Timeline Indicator move to the end of the last item
    on the Timeline or beyond? If it goes beyond, expand the Timeline with the zoom in  and zoom out slider, and inspect
    for leftover fragments or clips, and delete them.
    To double check what is might be going on....
    a. burn to disc without the disc menu
    b. do a burn to folder rather than a burn to disc
    Also, in the Expert workspace, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks and the Disc Encoding category. What is shown for the Disc Encoding save location and how much free hard drive space is at that location?
    Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Can I Create a Custom Menu In Premiere Elements 12?

    It's great that Elements 12 has a way to automate menus for a DVD, but so far I can't find one I like.  Specifically I want a picture background to fill up the whole screen, just like I can do with a title.  Maybe my question should be can I turn a title into a menu by adding markers? 
    And a related question is do I have to have a main menu and a separate scene selection menu?  I am used to creating menus (with Pinnacle) that allow just one menu screen and buttons that can be added (and the "button" can be text or a picture). 
    Now I'm getting ahead of myself but if I have a scene menu and someone selects a scene, at the end of the scene will it just continue playing or return to the scene menu?  It's an option in Pinnacle.  I'm hopping it is in Premiere as well because once the scene is done I would rather have it continue to play on like commercial DVDs would if you jumped to a scene in the middle of the movie to continue watching.
    Thanks for any comments.

    The disc menus come as a set of main menu page and scene page.
    The main menu page has buttons for Play All and Scenes Selection (to get to the scene menu page if the viewer does not want Play All.
    The scene menu page has buttons for the Scenes for the viewer to select what to view first. But, remember that after the viewer watches the selected scene, the viewer in not going to be taken back to the main menu unless he/she selected the last scene to watch.
    The number and sequence of the scenes in the scene menu page will be directed by where you place the
    menu markers on the Timeline content. The main action for disc menu set up is going to be in Tools Menu/Movie Menu/Movie Maker Customization.
    The main menu page comes with a designed in number of buttons. So does the scene menu page.
    a. main menu markers on the Timeline to place main menu buttons
    b. scene menu markers on the Timeline to place scene menu buttons.
    Now here is the consideration. If the number of scene markers on the Timeline exceeds the number of designed in button for the scene menu, then the excess spills over to additional pages. Same situation for the main menu and main menu markers.
    Example...if you have 6 scene markers placed on the Timeline and you use a menu with a scene menu with only 4 spots for buttons, then you are going to end up with 2 scene menus, the first with 4 buttons/page and the second with 2 on the page. In the end
    a. 1 main menu...Play All Button and Scene Selection Button
    b. 2 scene menus....lst with 4 buttons
    Let us try this. Go back to my blog posts and see if the introduction in any of them describes what you want to do.
    If one looks promising, then we can go step by step through the how to provide for smoother sailing through the details. The details may look better on the second read.
    Based on all that I will see if I can customize something beyond which I have already written about.
    Right now for practice look at 8 Timeline scene markers for the Memories/Memory Box theme which should give you
    1 main menu page with a spot to insert a picture
    2 scene menus page (each with 4 buttons per page)
    ATR
    Note: If all your scene markers appear to have similar scenes, make sure you have put a few frames distance between menu makers.
    Also, in the Marker's dialog, use the Offset to move the view a little. This will not affect the position of the marker on the Timeline, just the
    view of what you are seeing in the scene thumbnail.
    We can get rid of thumbnails but it will take us into the theme's psd editing in Photoshop CS or higher or depending on the circumstances
    Photoshop Elements.

  • Burning Disc with Adobe Premiere Elements 12

    I have made a slideshow in premiere elements 12.  I cannot find how to export. The instruction booklet said to go to tools and choose movie menus. I did this and saw it offerd movie menus and burn disc in description. I added menu. Then it said to click publis+share >disc.  This I can't find anywhere.  Can someone explain where that is?  I've restarted the computer and google searched.  I need someone to explain it as if they were talking to a toddler.  The export button in the file dropdown is gray and cannot be pressed.

  • Can you create a custom dvd menu with Premiere Elements 12?

    I am giving this software a trial before deciding whether to buy. Is it possible to create your own custom DVD menu? I understand that you can "download" a template and customize it to some extent. But the customizing does not seem to allow you to delete or add elements, like graphics or menu buttons. I want to be able to delete graphics/menu buttons I don't want, as well as add or subtract buttons as I need for each project. Or, I would like to create a menu from scratch.
    Is either method possible in Premiere Elements? Thank you for any assistance.

    Kanten
    Thanks for the reply.
    You can go with a one main menu set up and use main menu buttons. But, note that there are typically far less buttons on the main menu than on the scene menu. One maneuver is to switch the main menu with the scene menu to gain a buttons per page advantage. That is done by reversing the file names of the main menu .psd and scene menu .psd.
    At the editing of the .psd level, there is also the choice to add more buttons per page to a scene menu and create text or thumbnail scene buttons.
    One of the principles to keep in mind...no one movie in a multi movie Timeline can have its own Scene Menu page.
    Of concern....you should have more flexibility than
    In any case, I have discovered that I can edit the templates and then bring them into my project. So long as I save them as the same name, Adobe Premiere Elements doesn't realize that anything has changed.
    Are you following any one of my blog posts. If so, please let me know which one so I can focus in where you may be overlooking some detail. It is best to work with copies of the original and place them in appropriate folders in the directory structure. In doing that I give the user created menu a new name to distinguish it from the original.
    And, in versions 11 and 12,  I do not like to save user modified menus in the Online Folder. I prefer the location where the disc menu installed with the program is located. See blog posts.
    If your customization does not require the opening of Layer Sets in the Layers Palette of the .psd file (happens under certain plans), Photoshop Elements can do the .psd edit job for you, and you do not have to go to Photoshop CS or higher. There are Photoshop actions that might be used in Photoshop Elements to open Photoshop Layer Sets (as found in the disc menu .psd files), but I will not get into that right now.
    Please review and consider. And, then we can go into more details.
    Thanks.

  • Dvd Menu Adobe Premiere Elements 10 for Mac with bad resolution

    Hi, I use a MacBookPro with Mac OS X 10.6.8 - Intel Core i5 2,4 GH - RAM 4 GB.
    I just purchased PRE 10 version hoping to solve a problem I had with version 9 for Mac but not with a version 7 for Win.
    I
    My problem is that when I burn the dvd with the final work in PAL system, the menu of the DVD has the text very blurred at a very bad resolution.
    I searched this forum and I didn't found a similar problem for Mac user.
    I had the same problem with PRE 9.
    Same problem if I insert a logo in the corner of the video. Very bad resolution image in the final dvd.
    I tried to change the beginning resolution of the image from very low to very high and the result was the same.
    Someone has similar problems? Someone did find a way to solve it?

    Dear Bill, many thanks for your answer.
    This is the Project Preset chosen.
    As the source is a JVC Everio with hard disk, I chose PAL - Hard Disk - Widescreen 48 KHz
    The source is as I said a JVC Everio in SD size. I saved the files in a backup Hard Disk. They are .mod files.
    I don't know how to see if a Menu Sets is HD or SD. I tried almost all the available Menu Sets always with the same blurry results.
    These images explain better than words.
    Note that the firt image in the DVD Menu is perfect, not blurry. And this add a little bit of mystery :-)
    this is the scene selection that has text blurry
    And this is the logo I put in the right bottom side of the video. It is blurry. I put a high resolution image and it was blurry. Then I tried with an image .png with the same width of the video (720 pixels) and this is the same blurry effect:
    The solution I use in these days to have goog results is very time expensive.
    I make the editing work in my mac, without logo and menu. I make a dvd. Then I import the VIDEO_TS folder in my old pc, with my old version of Adobe Premiere 7.0. I insert the logo, I make the menu and then I make a dvd with my old PC and the resolution is the one I want.
    Obviolusly I'd like to do all the work in my Mac...
    The same problems and solution I used also with PRE 9.0
    By the way, I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements in my Mac instead  iMovie because I need to do videos longer than 2 hours. And iMovie has this limit.
    Many thanks in advance for help. There is someone that is using Mac and PRE 10 with GOOD results?

  • Can you have anything play before the DVD Menu using Premiere Elements 9?

    Hi,
    I'm new to this and creating a DVD with photos and video from my sister's wedding.  Does anyone know if you can have anything play before the DVD Menu appears?
    Thanks,

    Many of us use DVD Architect Studio as a supplement to Premiere Elements, because it's such a powerful DVD authoring app and it only costs $39 when yo download from Sony Creative Software.
    I've written a book on DVD Architect Studio 4.5 -- and my new book for DVD Architect Studio 5 will be available on Amazon.com at the end of this month.
    And, yes, it absolutely shows you how to add a video clip before your menus!

  • Disc Menu Position Premiere 9

    Is it possible to position the menu at a point partway into the video. I wish to have a short preamble when the video starts and then show the menu?

    That function is not available in Premiere Elements.
    This is the reason many Premiere Elements users supplement the program with a dedicated DVD authoring program like DVD Architect Studio (a $39 download from Sony). It's a very simple to use but very powerful program.
    For more information on it, check out some of my free demo tutorials at http://Muvipix.com/dvdas5.php.
