Trouble with play all buton
by Mike Kliem on Nov 3, 2009 at 2:11:19 pm

I have one video track and 9 chapters.
I have created stories for each chapter and linked the respective buttons to their stories also the stories are linked to their respective chapters.
I have also created a play all button and linked it to the video track (track 1),
however the play all button will only play the first chapter then it returns to the main menu.
The only way I can get a button to play all is to create an additional story and link all the chapters. This seems to work, but according to all the documentation I have read I should not need to do this. I should just be able to link the play all button to the master track (track 1) and this should play the entire track irrespective of individual chapters.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Look at the connections tab. It is possible that you inadvertently set return to menu for the marker on chapter one.

Hi..
Thanks for our input, although Im not exactly sure what you mean..
In the connections tab chapter one is set to end jump to the next button in the menu ( which I what I want ).
What is in the connections tab for chapter 1 is
----
Menu : Same as track
End Jump : Menu 2 button 2
Chapter 1 entry: menu : Blank
Chapter 1 entry: end jump : Menu 2 button 2
Does this look correct?
Thanks again

End Jump :should be not set
Chapter 1 entry: end jump should be not set (left blank).

You want the story to jump back to the menu, not chapter, and stories have their own connection
