CD-Menu Creator can create a professional-looking CD menu and DVD menu

SamLogic CD-Menu Creator 2022 is an easy-to-use tool that you can use to create professional-looking autoplay / autorun CD menu and DVD menu interfaces. From a menu you can launch applications, start installation programs, open documents, play movies, play Flash animations, open Internet pages etc. The menu is automatically opened when the user inserts the CD/DVD in a drive. A CD menu and DVD menu can contain pictures, animations, movies, sound, music and more.

USB flash drive menu interfaces can also be created

Nowadays USB flash drives (USB sticks) are often used to distribute programs and documents, and CD-Menu Creator can also be used to create menu interfaces for USB flash drives. And by using our other related product USB AutoRun Creator together with CD-Menu Creator, you can give the USB flash drive AutoRun capabilities and make the USB flash drive menu 100% auto-starting!

Multimedia

You can add your own pictures, animations, movies and sound to a menu. SamLogic CD-Menu Creator 2022 supports most common file formats used today like: JPEG, BMP, AVI, MPEG, MP3, Flash, MIDI, QuickTime etc.

Buttons can have different visual styles

The buttons and the clickable links in a menu can be designed in a lot of different visual styles. For example they can be a pure text link, a text with a frame, be of metallic style, be color blended between two colors, use 3D effects or glass effects (partially transparent), or just a bitmap. You can also add shadow effects and light effects to the buttons and create rollover effects; for example showing a colored active frame or adding sound effects that plays when the mouse pointer is above the button.

PDF, Word, HTML, Flash, PowerPoint

With only a mouse click over a button your user can open documents and media in a large number of formats. For example you can open a PDF, Word or HTML document, start a PowerPoint presentation, open an Excel worksheet, play an MPEG movie or play a Flash animation. Movies and Flash animations can be shown directly in the menu interface. If you distribute sensitive documents, the documents can be encrypted and password protected.

Installation programs and applications

CD-Menu Creator is perfect suited to create menus that will be used to launch installation programs and other types of programs/applications on a CD, DVD or USB flash drive. Both MSI installations and EXE installations can be run from a menu.

Starts automatically - the AutoRun technology in Windows is used

The AutoRun technology in Windows is used which means that the menu will appear automatically when the user inserts the CD or DVD in the drive. So there is no need for the user to manually locate any document or installation program on the disc.

The menu appears almost immediately!

The menu shell program is very small in size (written in C++) and will therefore be loaded almost immediately after the disc is inserted in the drive. In a normal CD/DVD drive the menu will be shown after only a few seconds! You don't need to wait 10-15 seconds, which is the case with a lot of similar products on the market...

Easy to use

The visual environment in SamLogic CD-Menu Creator 2022 is easy to use and intuitive. You will learn to use the program very fast. This means you can create your first CD menu, DVD menu or USB flash drive menu in a very short time. You can download a free trial of the program to take a look yourself.

NEW

- Supports the new Windows 11. With CD-Menu Creator 2022 you can create menu interfaces that can be run and shown in Windows 11, and the CD-Menu Creator editor can also be run in Windows 11.

- All binary files in CD-Menu Creator 2022 (for example the menu shell program) has been code signed with a digital certificate from the security company Sectigo. A key length of 4096 bit is used for the RSA encryption to obtain maximal security (protection against viruses etc.). You can read more about this in this blog post.

- Alpha channel transparency for pictures is now supported. With alpha channel transparency you can make a picture partially transparent. For example the main menu picture and the logotype picture supports this new feature.

- The glas effects for "glas buttons" are now much faster. By using a new method we have increased the display speed a lot.

- Some social media icons have been modernized and some outdated icons have been removed.

- Improved error handling. We have improved the error handling for some common errors that may occur.

- In the editor you can now customize the visual look of the editor more than before; you can for example change the visual style for the buttons used in the editor.
