I guess you have the 3 videos on the same Timeline, each video starting with a chapter marker. They will be shown without stopping. If it is so, you have a project with 1 Film.

Another solution could be a project with 3 Films. This means one Timeline for each of the 3 videos.

With your project, place the cursor at the start of video3. Then click the triangle at the Razorblade and click Split movie. Now video3 is moved to a new Timline. Do the same with video2. Now you have 3 films in your project. If wanted, you can place 'sub-chapters' in each film. When clicking the Filmwheel under the monitor, you can change between the 3 films, and give them new names.

When clicking Burn, Magix makes a menu with 3 items. Click Edit in upper left corner, to find different choices. (Film menu, chapter menu). Right-click in a frame, then Properties to find Action at end of Film. After playing a film, it will normally jump back to Menu.

Thank you for the help. I'm sorry I should of be a bit clearer. I do have 3 seperate videos, it shows 3 different chapters. One for each video. I tried to follow your instructions but I guess I took my dumb pill today. I am in the editing section after hitting burn. I cannot seem to find these options you were talking about. I am using Edit Pro 17 Plus, if that matters.

 

I did click in a frame but could not find- Action at end of film. I'm sorry to be a pain but I do appreciate your help

lamesman,

 

You say '...I am in the editing section after hitting burn. I cannot seem to find these options you were talking about. ' You need to be on the 'Edit' tab, not edit section of the 'Burn' tab.

 

Your statement: '...Thank you for the help. I'm sorry I should of be a bit clearer. I do have 3 separate videos, it shows 3 different chapters. One for each video.', sounds like you still have your three videos as one 'movie' in a MEP project. That's the case if you see them strung together something like this on the timelines:

 

[ch1]first video material[ch2]second video material[ch]3 third video material

 

When asoeli says '... This means one Timeline for each of the 3 videos.' he doesn't mean the three are on separate numbered tracks (vetical stacking) all visible at once. If you truly have three movies in one project then you can only see one at a time and there will be three names to choose from at the bottom of the main 'Window' dropdown menu -- or from the little film reel (wheel) sort of icon above the timelines.

 

Hope this helps some,

Carl
