A menu can include text, still images, motion footage, and audio. Depending on its composition, a menu is
considered either a still menu or a motion menu:
A menu composed of static images. It contains no moving footage or audio.
Still menu
A menu that includes moving footage or audio. A video can play in the background of the menu.
Motion menu
Menu buttons can include thumbnail versions of the movies to which they're linked. You can even include audio,
such as music or narration, while the menu is displayed.
Buttons display thumbnail versions of linked video.
Button subpicture states
Button subpictures let you change the look of buttons in response to the remote control or mouse. Each button has
three possible states:
Displayed when the button is not selected by the remote control or mouse.
Normal
Triggered when the viewer navigates to the button with the remote control or mouse. When a menu opens,
Selected
one button is always preselected.
Triggered when the viewer presses Enter on the remote control after navigating to the button or when the
Activated
viewer clicks the button with the mouse. Depending upon the DVD player, the display time of the activated state can
be very short, so designers often make the selected and activated state the same.
