Working With Movies
A movie contains a video clip or still image, an optional audio clip, and
instructions that tell the DVD player how long to display the movie, what to do
when the movie finishes, and what to do if the viewer presses different remote
control buttons while the movie is playing. A DVD Video project must contain at
least one movie.
If the movie contains a video clip, you can also add chapter points; these let the
viewer jump to specific locations in the video.

player plays individual movies and menus; see “Changing Movie and Menu
Properties” on page 77 for details.
