106 Chapter 7, Creating Video and Still Tracks
Adding Angles to Video Tracks
The DVD Specification supports up to nine angle views for video tracks. Angles can share
the same audio and subpicture streams (providing seamless playback when switching
angles), or they can each have their own audio and subpicture streams (providing non-
seamless playback when switching angles).
To add an angle to a video track:
1 In the Track Editor directory area, select the track to which you will add the angle.
2 In the Track Editor timeline, select the scene at the beginning of the scene stream. In the
Property Browser specify the Angle Type:
Seamless All angles share the same audio and subpicture streams. Viewers can
seamlessly switch to a different angle with no interruption in playback. This option is
appropriate for music videos with multiple angles can that can be selected without
stopping the flow of music.
Non-seamless All angles can have their own audio and subpicture streams. Viewers can
switch non-seamlessly to a different angle with an interruption in playback. Use this
option if you want the viewer to experience different audio or music with each angle.
3 Choose New > Angle or click the New Angle button in the Tools Bar. A new angle stream
(Angle 1) is added to the track.
