I am in need of some help trying to get my DVD to play like I want. I am using 2.0. Ok, here is what I want to happen.
1-I have a main menu with two buttons Play all(I want to play the entire video straight through) and chapters(which goes to my chapters menus.) I will have 3 pages of menus.
What I want is when you go to the chapters menu and click on a specific chapter it will play that chapter only and then link back to the chapters menu. I know in the manul it explains this Page 35 but I am having a dandy time trying to figure it out. Can anyone plaese help?
Thank you

If you only want it to play "chapter one" and return to the menu...you have to set the in/out points to only play the portion you consider chapter one...and then set the end action to return to the menu.

You then would have to copy that media....changing the in/out points for chapter 2...then return to the menu.

In essense...you will end up with three separate pieces. So when piece one (chapter 1) plays, you tell it to go back to the main menu.

It's actually easy to do - but someteimes a little difficult to wrap your brain around if you hadn't done it before. Trust me...once you do it once, it's like riding a bike.
