Extend length of menu screen or loop program?

I'm prepping a DVD of corporate sponsor slides and and event information that will run for a 6 hour event on monitors. I'd love to be able to take my whole final cut project and make it the DVD menu so it loops all night - but I get cut off at about 30 seconds. Can that be extended indefinitely? How?
If not - is there a way to create a loop in a media file that is selected from the menu so that this runs indefinitely?

I'll have maybe a 5-10 minute montage of motion slides with sponsor logos, event information, etc. I was thinking if I leave it as the DVD menu, it will loop on it's own without direction from the DVD player - but if I can put it on the menu and have it loop automatically via dvd studio pro - that'll work too. Whatever should work best.
If there is not a limit to how long menu animation can last, I can just let the players loop on the menu all night. If there is a limit, I guess I need to know how to loop a program automatically.

Differnece between EXIT and LEAVE TO SCREEN or LEAVE PROGRAM?

HI Experts,
Differnece between EXIT and LEAVE TO SCREEN or LEAVE PROGRAM?
thanks in advance

Syntax
EXIT.
Effect
If the EXIT statement is executed outside of a loop, it will immediately terminate the current processing block.
After the prodessing block has been executed, the runtime environment behaves in such a way that it follows with the exception Reporting Event Blocks START-OF-SELECTION and GET the schema from Leave Processing Blocks.
After the Reporting Processing Blocks START-OF-SELECTION and GET have been exited using EXIT, the runtime environment does not trigger any further reporting events. Instead, it directly calls the list processor for displaying the basic list.
Note
We recommend using EXIT only within loops (see EXIT (loops) ). Instead, use RETURN to leave processing blocks.
LEAVE [TO] SCREEN
Syntax
LEAVE { SCREEN | {TO SCREEN dynnr} }.
Variants:
1. LEAVE SCREEN.
2. LEAVE TO SCREEN dynnr.
Effect
This statement ends the processing of the current screen. The current processing block of the ABAP program and the current processing block of the dynpro are left immediately.
Variant 1
LEAVE SCREEN.
Effect
The variant LEAVE SCREEN calls the current next screen. This is either statically specified in the properties of the current screen or has been set before using the statement SET SCREEN.
Variant 2
LEAVE TO SCREEN dynnr.
Effect
The variant LEAVE TO SCREEN calls the screen with the number dynnr as the next screen. A data object of the type n of the length 4 is expected for dynnr. It must contain either the screen number of a screen in the main program of the current program group or the value 0. Otherwise, an exception that cannot be handled is raised. This statement is a short form of the statements SET SCREEN dynnr and LEAVE SCREEN.
Note
This statement does not terminate the entire dynpro sequence; it branches to an additional screen in the same sequence. Only if the number 0 is used to branch to the next screen, LEAVE SCREEN terminates the screen sequence.
LEAVE PROGRAM
Syntax
LEAVE PROGRAM.
Effect
This statement immediately ends the current main program and deletes its internal session - including all loaded programs, instances, and their data .
The LEAVE PROGRAM statement can appear anywhere within any processing blocks. It ends the program regardless of the program/object or the program group of the internal session in which it is executed.

Pavan P.

Creating a screen in report program and calling that screen in program.

Hi,
I have a report program and I want to give output in different screen.
can any one tell me how to create a screen in executable program and calling that screen in program in END-OF-SELECTION for displaying results.
Thanks a lot.
Kiran

Hi,
Open your program in SE80. Right click on your program. Click CREATE->Screen menu. This will allow you to create screen for the program.
In the End-of-selection event call the screen using the commands CALL SCREEN or LEAVE TO SCREEN or SET SCREEN.
CALL SCREEN

Frozen Ipod/ Ipod keeps rebooting at black apple logo screen (on loop)

Frozen Ipod/ Ipod keeps rebooting at black apple logo screen (on loop)
-I've already replaced my old 60 GB Ipod in exchange for an 80GB, I bring it home, sync it up with Itunes v7.02 and everything works fine for a while. Not even 24 hours later I go down into my artist/song directory to play a song, and it freezes again. I do the menu center key soft reboot a few times to bypass it and it works for awhile. I've tried looking for current updates for software on it, Restoring it, Resyncing and now It gets to the point everytime I unplug the ipod from charging I get back to the menu and try to play a song or video and it does nothing, it freezes everytime.
There has to be an explanation as to why my first one did it and why my new 80GB is doing it.
I've already ran a diagnosis on all the files in the ipod all of them come back clean.
Help me out.
If you know how to resolve this issue reply and/or email me
[email protected]

My ipod is having a similar problem. The black apple logo has been the only thing I see on my ipod. I went a step farther and held the select and play/pause button to get it into disk mode. Once I am here I cannot proceed. I do not have computer that I hook it up to and have transferred the desired songs from an ex-girlfriends computer which I do not have access. What can I do once I have it in disk mode if I do not have a computer available?

Browser window not taking up whole screen, despite actual program doing so.

At one point I opened FF and the browser window stopped taking up full screen. The program actually fills the screen, but the actual browser window has some sort of right hand margin. Right clicking in right margin produces no pop up menu. Browser currently looks as such http://i.imgur.com/8pgtE.jpg. I've tried closing, force closing, and restart of PC and does not revert back to normal. No plug in installed, however cannot be certain one did not update, although I believe none did.

Found my culprit. Whitespace Remover for Google Plus plugin recently updated evidently. I disabled v1.28 and everything went back to normal

IDVD - dvd plays automatically without going to the menu screen

Hi,
I'm new to iDVD and burned my first project yesterday, after transfering it from iMovie.
A problem: I created chapter markers in iDVD, which when imported into iDVD appeared there. The home page let's you choose either to play the movie or select a scene. However, after burning the project to DVD and inserting it into a DVD player, it starts the movie automatically!
I would like it to go, by default, to the menu screen when inserting into a DVD player - so I can choose scenes. Any suggestions how I can get it to do that?
Thank you,
Mont

As you have rightfully pointed out above; I wouldn't assume iDvd'08 and iDvd'09 are identical versions. But they are very similar. There are more significant differences within separate iMovie versions, as well as iPhoto, GB, etc.
Have I tested the difference between iDvd'08 vs. iDvd'09? No, not yet. As soon as I do I'll make every attempt to post a few of the differences. At the moment, I'm looking into separate volumes / hard drive bootability differences between Tiger vs. Leopard on both an external FW HD as well as internal ATA and SATA hard drives. And it seems I have my work cut out for me in this regard for at least the next few weeks. As soon as I complete this latter issue I will come back to iDvd.
Under Tiger I didn't have to worry about making a clone (using CCC or SuperDuper) of my existing volume/s that contained iDvd and other i-apps. But apparently (at least at first glance) this is longer the case under Leopard.

Is there a way to make the resolution of my menu screens better?

When I burn my DVD the resolution is realy bad on the menu screens and the color is extremely muted and muddy is there a way to fix this?

a. What material did You use ?
• video codec (.mov, .mp4, .avi - is no codecs but containers - What's in them?)
• audio file format
• photo file format
b. What video editor did You use
• iMovie HD6
• iMovie'08 or 09 or 11
• FinalCut (Express/Pro/Pro-X)
c. 120 minutes - Are You using a DL-DVD ?
Duration is Movie time PLUS MENU. Menu can take 15 minutes or even more.
iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1)
iDVD 6 has the two last ones
• Professional Quality (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST
• Best Performances (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD
• High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6) (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
About double on DL DVDs.
d. Frame rate: Don't know - PAL or NTSC or 24fps
Open in QuickTime Player and open Inspector and read (codec and frame rate)
e. Burn speed: Default
Set it down to x4 - Better over all result.
Yours Bengt W

How do i drag media to the menu screens in premiere elements 13? I can't see my audio files and the menu screens at the same time. In prior versions it was easy

How do i drag media to the menu screens in premiere elements 13? I can't see my audio files and the menu screens at the same time. In prior versions it was easy?
It is very cumbersome to "re browse" for audio files/pics/movie clips to add to menu screens. Certainly there is a way to view the media and menu screen at the same time so I can drag and drop?

Jayhawk
I think I know exactly what you are seeking and believe it cannot be done in Premiere Elements 11, 12, and 13 as it can be done in versions earlier than 11 where the Disc Layout and Project Media are viewed side by side.
Premiere Elements 13 uses a Movie Menu customization workspace which is not allowing viewing of Project Assets in the Expert workspace at the same time.

How to call Screen in another program from exsisting program

Hello Frieds,
Can any one help me how to call a screen in another program (Say "test2") from exsisting program(say "test1')
If above case is possible then how to access the fields in the target screen?
Your responce is greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,
If you wish to use ONLY the screen of another program, call transaction will not help you, because the called transaction will be fully executed (and not only the screen), and the acess to screen field wil be difficult.
When you wish to access the same screen from more than one program, you can create this screen in a function module and in this way you can call the function (to display the screen) in many programs.
Best regards,
Leandro Mengue

How to set Screen type "Selection Screen" in Dialog program

Hi Experts,
I have copied a screen 400 from a program into my program. In that screen in source program, the screen type was defined as 'Selection Screen'. After i copied that screen into my program, the screen type Selection Screen option is disabled. How to set the screen type of a screen to Selection Screen.
I am currently getting the following error
"Error when generating the selection screen "0400" of "Ztest_screen ".
I tried running the generation program RSDBGENA. There the diagnosis was given as follows:
When generating the report Ztest_screen and its selection screen, an existing screen 1000 (not a selection screen) was overwritten.
The selection screen was defined as follows:
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN 400 AS SUBSCREEN.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK blck1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
SELECT-OPTIONS: s_matnr FOR mara-matnr.
PARAMETERS: p_werks TYPE werks_d OBLIGATORY.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK blck1.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF SCREEN 400 .
I am calling the screen 400 with selection screen declarations in PBO of screen 0100.
CALL SUBSCREEN sub_scr INCLUDING 'Ztest_Screen' '400'.
Where am i going wrong? Your inputs are needed.
Thanks

Thanks Przemysław and Nabheet for your suggestions.
I had copied the generated screen 400 also from the source program into my program. This was the error. I deleted that and the report got activated now.
Both the source and destination programs are not module pool. They are executable programs.
Thanks

Selection-screen in module program

Hi,
I have created a module pool prog.
Now the new regd. is that I want to create selection-screen before displying the actual screen.
But when I m trying to use selection screen then I m getting the message that it is not possible in type 'M' as my program is module pool.
I m using screen 9000 to display the records, now where to write selection screen in the program?
I think in PBO but getting some error, I have created one screen and in that defined a subscreen but it is giving some error.
So any body knows how to add selection screen in 'M' type program?
Thankx in advance.
Umesh

Hi,
You can create a selection-screen for a module pool program.
Create a new program with executable type. Create the selection screen as you would do in a normal program. Once you give data in the selection and press F8 button, based on the logics written, the O/P must appear in a table control. This is what your requirement is:
A example below for your understanding.
name of the prog : ZTEST
Type: Exectable report (I)
*----Selection Screen -
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK IPDATA WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-001.
PARAMETERS: PR_MONTH LIKE BOITEM-SPMON.
SELECT-OPTIONS: SO_VKGRP FOR KNVV-VKGRP.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK IPDATA.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK ORGDATA WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-002.
SELECT-OPTIONS: SO_REGIO FOR KNA1-REGIO,
                SO_KUNNR FOR KNA1-KUNNR,
                SO_WERKS FOR T001W-WERKS.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK ORGDATA.
*--Selection Screen Events--
START-OF-SELECTION.
W_CURMFDAY = SY-DATUM.
W_CURMFDAY+6(2) = '01'.
PERFORM F001_GETDATA.
IF SY-DBCNT EQ 0.
    MESSAGE S017(ZSFL).
    EXIT.
ENDIF.
PERFORM F002_ADDITIONALDATA.
CALL SCREEN 100.
For this screen 100, both the PBO and PAI can be declared in this main program itself.

JLN.
