Sony DVD Architect Studio 5.0

Postby Richardmotsch » Sun Jul 03, 2016 2:38 pm

In program Sony DVD Architect 5.0 When I put a picture on the main background the background picture goes on and looks great on all pages. But later on the only I get black backgrounds on all menu pages. It also, is black on the television screen. I sure wish I could have a nice picture background on menu pages.

Hi Richard,

Do you happen to have the background image on a removable drive or move it to another folder?

Silly question, but did you save the project after you added the background photo?

I'm not quite sure by what you mean when you say the background picture "looks great on all pages" but later on you "get black backgrounds on all menu pages."

Usually I open the themes-file (Program Files (x86)\Sony\DVD Architect Studio 5.0\ Themes ) with 7-zip and change within that file the background. Save the theme under another name and after restarting you will finde the quasi-new theme at the usual place.

That's it, for sure. When you use an image in a project and then move the image file or remove it from the system (as when disconnecting a USB flash drive), your project can no longer find the image you used. You might consider creating a folder somewhere on your computer specifically for files such as this so your project can always find them until you've completed and rendered it.

I sure did put it on a flash drive. That was the reason it didn't work. When I saved the picture on the programs computer. And I pulled the picture out of computers explore, it worked fine. Thanks a bunch!!!
