    Hi,
    I tried searching for an answer but no luck, perhaps someone here caould help me out.

    I`m using DVDA 5.2, building a menu based DVD, MPEGs w/chapters

    I have two video files which are one ‘movie’. When making a Menu for them I go :
    1 – video 1 chapter 1
    2 – video 1 chapter 2
    3 – video 2 chapter 1

    I set the END ACTION of video 1 to ‘Video2’ so that it plays back one file after another and this works fine BUT the NEXT button on the ‘virtual remote control’ only works for skipping to next Chapter – not the next movie. How can I assign that action to the next button?

    Put another chapter point just before the end of video 1. When the viewer jumps to that chapter, playback will proceed for a second or so and then the jump to video 2 will execute.

    By DVD Spec, you can’t redefine the function of the next chapter button.
