Hello everybody

I have a tiny problem, i created a simple DVD with 14 chapters and i would like at the end of each a wayback to menu.

There is an option while creating DVD 'Read select title only'. The problem is when title is finish, no way back to menu page but film is continuing.

So what ? Can you give me a hint ?

The problem is in the terminology... Titles are the whole video.

If you want each "chapter" to return to the menu, you have to break each chapter into it's own video file. CyberPowerPC | Win7HP-64 | AMD FX-8320 3.5 Ghz | 8GB Mem | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB | WEI 5.9

PowerDirector has it's uses. For complete customization, I use DVDStyler. CyberPowerPC | Win7HP-64 | AMD FX-8320 3.5 Ghz | 8GB Mem | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB | WEI 5.9

Merci again for the link.
Even if i like so much the look and feel of DVD creation with Power Director, maybe they should implement an option for this use

Hello, Jean Jose!

This is my second attempt at posting here! The first attempt took far too long to save and disappeared into the ether. As Jcarana said, it's all in the terminology, "Title" is the entire video clip(anywhere from a few minutes to two hours) while a "chapter" is a portion of that clip. The purpose of chapters is to divide a video into easily-found segments(portions) that can be found by going straight to them in the menu(selecting "Scenes") or using the "skip" button on the DVD player's remote control while the video is playing.

A hypothetical example here shows what I'm saying. A 50-minure video of a new baby coming into a family. Chapter 1 shows Mum and Dad with the new bub in her cradle, being carried through the maternity hospital reception area and out to the waiting family car(5 minutes for each chapter). Chapter 2, at home the new nursery(that was dad's office) is shown with cot, toys, pink wallpaper(they already knew it was gong to be a girl). Chapter 3, Baby Jenny being nursed by Mum, then Dad, 14-year-old brother Jim doing the camerawork, and on it goes until Chapter 10 where Auntie Nellie finally gets to have a nurse but Jenny's having none of this, lets out a hell of a scream, calming down only when Mum relieves Nellie of the burden. The chapter points are there to help quickly find that scene.(15 years later, Jenny's birthday party) Mum finds and loads that disc, it still plays well. Nellie is Jenny's favourite aunt, watches again how Jenny bawled her eyes out with that first nursing 15 years earlier. Hope that explains things.

Cheers!

Neil.

I have been reading through the forum to see if I find a conversation that might help me. I am new to PD 14 Ult and have done a couple blu ray burns. My video is a whole video with no chapters. My current issue is that my discs when played in my blu ray player will not fast forward. it says "this operation is currently prohibited for this disc". I have two players in my home and it will say the same on the screen. Is this something that is set when I burn the disc? I am just getting started to learn this program, thanks for any help

Terence - this (your issue) is unrelated to the DVD return to menu issue as titled in this thread.

Please start a new thread and use in the subject line something about not being able to fast forward in BR player.

You see, if people are looking to help others - they wont see that your real issue is about fast forwarding when they see the title of THIS thread. OK?
