258 Appendix A, The Template Wizard
About the Template Wizard
The Template Wizard allows you to quickly create two of the most common DVD authoring
patterns: loop and branch. This saves you the trouble of registering assets, creating tracks
and PGCs, and adding the required navigation links.
Loop patterns consist of a sequence of video or still image assets that play repeatedly. Loop
patterns can be preceded by assets that play once as a lead-in to the loop.
Branch patterns consist of a main menu that links to video or still image assets, or submenus
(which can in turn branch to additional assets). Branch patterns can be preceded by assets
that play once as a lead-in to the menu.
