Re: help! audio in the menu stops playing

If this menu is set to Loop, then it is going to cut off as soon as the image sequence ends.
Please remember that in DVD-Video, you are always going to be graphically dominant, Audio Subservient.
This means that the image or movie or still is always the "lead" item.
So a 4 second AVI set to loop will play the AVI, then loop - and it WILL cut the Audio short at multiplex. There is no way to avoid this unless you do not want the menu to loop.
A possible workaround involves a little lateral thinking, and you could try this:
A - Set your menu to the full 3 minutes, including Audio by extending the final frame to go to the length of the Audio file.
B - Set the first 4 seconds to go into a still menu, with your 3 minute Audio file.
Set the end action of this still menu with the Audio to revert back to the initial 4 second video clip.
