How to make Blu Ray motion titles for FCPX with Motion

Apple has a document that describes how to make custom titles for Blu Ray discs for use in FCPX. The same document says that you can create full motion Blu Ray title templates for FCPX using Motion, but fails to mention how to do it. Does any one know how to make and use Motion to do this?

The link above is to the document about Blu ray menus in FCPX. It's first paragraph includes "Final Cut Pro X and Compressor support still images for both DVD and Blu-ray menus, including full motion menus using Motion templates for Blu-ray menus."


Unfortunately, the document does not talk about full motion menus at all, as far as I can find.


I was hoping someone knew how to do this.

Interesting observation, Rick.


As you probably know, Apple stopped any interest in 'disk making' about a decade ago … Underrated iDVD supported 'moving images' as disk background, but that was SDef only… Out of curiosity, tried that in FCPX - no luck, the BluRay dialogue supports only stills.


So, a) that advice is just wrong, or b) you're on track on a hidden (future??) feature… 😮


No, I highly doubt any 'new' features in that sector 'disk making'… Guess, 3rd party app Roxio Toast is your only option on macOS for customised, animated BluRay menus.........
