Many parameters can be set if using Custom.
3)Īutomatic works well with ProRes clips. These will display as numbers (1, 2, 3…) unless setup as scene menus.Īlthough the individual title buttons on the menu will remain “My Movie”, they will burn to disc displaying the text you chose with the Text Tab. I believe you can set up chapters for scenes within a clip.
Set the Button Highlight Color & Background Color. (Use Automatic if you have 3, 5 or more than 6 buttons.) Set the number of buttons (1, 2, 4, 6 or Automatic). Be sure to leave it blank if you drag in an image with a Photoshop generated title (as I have done.) Type in a Menu Title name if desired (replacing “My Movie”.) To eliminate Toast’s Menu Title, leave the field blank. To change the background image, drag your graphic onto the existing image (jpegs & pngs work well). Add additional data content or photos if you wish. Play all items continuously plays all clips in sequence without returning to the menu. No choice results in returning to main menu after each clip.Īuto-play disc on insert starts with the first clip on disc (bypassing the menu). Toast applies this name to the disc or disc image, but it does not appear on the menu. Type in the Disc Name (replacing “My Movie”). Click More to open the Disc/Menu/Encoding dialog. In the Options window at the lower left, set Menu Style to Splash (16×9). The directions below create left-justified text buttons. I think text buttons produce a cleaner, classier look. I prefer text buttons to the boxy graphic buttons. If you wish to use graphic buttons, you can select the desired clip frame for each menu button graphic. You have the option to edit or trim your video clips by sliding the trim markers. In this dialog, you can insert Chapter Markers if you wish. NOTE: I changed the title to “Slideshow,” and erased the date and duration fields to prevent them from showing up on my completed disc. The clip’s title, date, and duration automatically appear in the three text fields. Select a ProRes clip and click the Edit button to the right of the clip name to open Text/Video dialog. Select and drag any clip up or down in this file list to rearrange the presentation order. Drag your ProRes 422 clip(s) into main window. Select Blu-ray Video tab at the top left. Prepare your master ProRes 422 clips using the video editor of choice. Here’s the same menu in text button format. The four clip Blu-ray menu above was created from video and images shot in Monterey, California. I prefer to use my own background images for menus, even though Toast 10 provides 25 of its own. Arabesque centers the text buttons and Splash left justifies them. The exceptions are Arabesque and Splash which produce text buttons without graphic boxes. Most of the Toast menu styles make use of graphic buttons in boxes. These are based on the appearance of the menu buttons–either graphic or text. While Toast 10 has over two dozen menu style templates, it actually lends itself to just two layouts. #MAC TOAST DVD SOFTWARE#
After reading a recent article lamenting the demise of DVD and Blu-ray Disc software from both Apple and Adobe, Peter Weiler shared the following tutorial with me.īy: Peter Weiler, Diablo Valley Macintosh User Group Without these, a Blu-ray Disc can not be created on a Mac.Īs Apple moves ever farther from supporting optical media, creative pros still need the ability to create visually interesting menus and discs.
NOTE: This Macintosh technique requires a Blu-ray Plug-in and BD-R or BD-RE Burner, both of which are sold separately.
