PRV-LX1 DVD Menu Maker

3.Choose Layer from the submenu.

4.Enter the name of this layer as Text Area.

5.Using the Rectangular Marquee tool (Manual background), outline an area for button text.

6.Fill the area with the appropriate color.

Refer to the Color Order Chart in section 4.2 of this manual.

7.Repeat steps 4 and 5 as needed for your custom layout.

8.Fill the remaining space around the text areas with white (RGB: 255,255,255).

9.Move the Text Area layer to above the Thumbnail Mask layer.

The stacking order from top to bottom should now be Text Area, Thumbnail Mask, Thumbnail Area, Button Mask, Button Image, Button Area, Highlight Area (or Subpicture) and Background.

In the example below, the gray bar at the bottom of the layer is the Disc Title block and the colored blocks are button text. The Disc Title and/or button text must be entered through the PRV-LX1’s Function menu in order to show in the designated areas. If title/button labels are not entered, the text blocks are ignored but this layer is still mandatory.

10.0COLOR TABLE LAYER

The final layer required for the PRV-LX1 DVD Menu Maker program is the Color Table layer. The Color Table sets the Highlight Select and Activate colors. The positioning of the color table on the layer is critical; each cell size is 20 pixels by 20 pixels without borders.

Being as this layer is fairly complicated, you may prefer to choose from the Select and Activate highlight colors available on the PRV-LX1. Simply set these colors through the PRV-LX1 Function menu (under the Edit section, DVD Menu submenu, Menu Modification options) and copy the sample Color Table layer in to your custom menu. The DVD Menu Maker program creates the import file so that the color table is ignored.

If you wish to have highlight colors not available from the PRV-LX1, download the LX1_CustomMenuSample.psd or the ColorTableLayer.psd file from the Pioneer website. Copy this layer to your design file or build other layers around the Color Table Layer.
