DVD-5 Regarding the authoring of the main menus - what exactly are you looking for..a menu button for each chapter? graphics for the menu page? The conference brochure should be attached. Do an index page listing each of the speakers in order so viewer can click on the presentation he wishes to view. Is the printed 4"x4" insert being used instead of a printed "wrap-around" insert on the outside of the Amaray case, or will you require a printed "wrap-around" in addition? We will provide the graphics to print on the outside cover of the set. No insert is needed.

How many presentations do you want on each DVD? What does "4 ? days - 45-60 minutes" The conference was 4.5 days with continuous presentations. No set amount on each DVD - whatever fits The usual viewing time is 60 minutes max - this works best. You could break into Part A and Part B if the presentation runs over 60 minutes. Most do not.
