What I really want to do is make a directory for looking at on a dvd
player.
So people that are not intrested in looking at a web can look at a dvd
to get that number and a face of who they would be calling. ????
This then gives me a 1500 category menu and stills to stuff on this
disk.
However nobody has been able to give me the answer - it can or cannot
be done !
and the maximum stills are ?????
If I get past this question then I will know if it is worth the
frustration on the building of dvd!!!
