How to add first play clip

If you want, that your first play clip will be displayed only first time when the disk is placed in the player and before the menu is displayed:

1. add your clip to dvd as title 1
2. specify following Pre-Command in menu properties: if (g0==0) { g0 = 1; jump title 1; }
3. specify following Post-Command in title 1 properties: call menu;

If you want, that your first play clip will be displayed every time before menu is displayed:

1. add your clip to dvd as title 1
2. specify following Pre-Command in menu properties: if (g0==0) { g0 = 1; jump title 1; }; g0 = 0;
3. specify following Post-Command in title 1 properties: call menu;

Another way is to use a VMGM menu to show the first play clip:

1. Add vmMenu from popup in bottom pane
2. Set first play clip as background for vmMenu
   • double-click first play clip MPG file in Directories tab
3. Set vmMenu properties so it goes to normal menu after first play clip
   • Pause: 0
   • Title: true
   • Post: jump titleset 1 menu;
4. Set normal menu (the first titleset 1 menu) as root menu
   • Root: true
   • Pause: -1
5. Set titles' properties so after playing they return to normal menu or first play clip
   • Return to normal menu: Post: call menu;
   • Return to first play clip: Post: call vmgm menu 1;
