I've got an Opus presentation of 5 screens with a single wav, launched from the first screen, playing throughout.

As a preview, it plays perfectly.

When I publish to DVD, there is a very small amount of silence between one screen and the next - the soundtrack is no longer perfect.

Can I not publish a single soundtrack to DVD?

Thanks, Linda

Linda --

You KNOW I love OPUS, but making a DVD with background music is not a strength. I found the audio skips/pauses when you go to a new Page (as you described).

If this is only 5 Pages, I'd use a video editor which certainly can have a constant audio as background. I use Pinnacle's Studio 9 Plus. Their version 10 still has many bugs/problems, so I'm not moving up to it. Studio 9 does everything I can imagine. It's not as complex as Premier, and it's a lot less expensive. I can build a 5 screen DVD with transitions between each screen and a CUSTOM audio track (with Studio generates to the exact length needed) in less than 2 minutes. Burning the DVD takes longer than the editing.

I would skip OPUS for this project.
