Basic Question
by Caleb Armstrong on Aug 28, 2008 at 1:47:01 pm

I'm trying to put together a disc of some material produced here at the office which will loop, as well as be able to be navigated manually.

Is there any way to program the last chapter marker so that it will know to loop if activated through one method, and then to return to the menu when activated through another on a single track, or would I need two different tracks for each operation? I hope that makes sense.

Thanks for all the hard work!

You may need multiple tracks, but this can also be done with using stories: One track on the DVD but multiple stories that can have unique end jumps.

Example: if the user selects to view the video from Menu 1 then story #1 will play, and at the end it will jump back to the Menu 1. If the user selects to view the same video but through menu 2 then story #2 plays, and at the end of it the jump back is to menu 2.

Awesome. I read this and then started investigating stories and it seems as if they are exactly what I need.


Thanks for the info, you rock!
