Dr. Charles Kriel has enjoyed a remarkable career as a creative. His critically acclaimed first book (and DVD), How to DVJ – A Digital DJ Masterclass, will be released in May via Elsevier/Focal Press. And now, thanks to Charles and Focal Press, you can enjoy the first in a tasty series of previews from the project, right here on DJsounds.

He also supplies a complementary DVJ loop for your creative use: the beautiful Deborah’s Flowers. Shot by Deborah Aschheim and edited and manipulated by Charles, you can even check out the story behind this clip (and others) inside this lively book.

    Hi guys

    Got a technical problem for you. There is probably an obvious solution but I’m buggered if I can find it. I’ve been trying to make up compication DVDs using the best videos from the various monthy music DVDs availabe. When I try to play the discs back, I have to use the chapter +/- buttons to skip to the next track rather than using the next/previous buttons. I’ve tried setting up menus and all sorts but with no success. I’ve also tried a few different types of DVD burning software such as Sony Architect and NERO 7 but still no joy. Aany help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Gav

    I am on a Mac so don’t have much experience of your problem as not on a PC but I will have a go. The principals should be the same.

    This is very strange because the next/previous track skip buttons should just skip through the chapters.

    I will research for you :-)
