**Note that I am recycling this thread, it used to be about something else. No sense in cluttering up the boards with my questions**

I was working on a demo of my stuffs in the DVDLab Pro and I found that I can only put in 99 seperate movie clips. Of course, I have about 130 by my last count. So I need to figure out something else. Am I right in thinking I can dump all of my Empire Strikes Back trailers in the same movie file, seperate them by chapter markers and have them seperately playable from a unique menu? And would I be have to do anything particular to make this work?

Does this mean you're getting close to being done with the trailers project?

I'm close enough to start burning test versions. There are still some things I'm figuring out in vegas, but it is getting closer. The big hurdle now is working on my cruddy monitor. I've got a sweet 20" widescreen lcd from amazon in the works if they would get around to processing the blasted, freakin' order! Geez!

While there may be a technical way around this, an easier way would be to cut your MPEG at the 99th film (Or 98th, so you can put a chapter stop at the end to allow skipping over it), and the remaining segment would start over with the chapters. You can link the 1st segment to the 2nd so that it will automatically start the next segment if you were watching all the way through (the pause would be minor.)

If you still have the videos in Vegas, then just make two new MPEGs. Did you have any other Vegas questions?
