Anyway To Change the “Previous Chapter” Button Routing???
Hey Everyone,
I’d love some help with this is possible. Basically long story short I have a project that is a multi-title DVD. My client said he wants when he presses the “Previous Chapter” button (two arrows with the line) on a remote or in a Video Player that he wants it to go to the beginning of that chapter not the start of the previous chapter. Funnily enough the DVD seems to work that way while in the Encore Preview however when burned it doesn’t.
Is there any possible way to make the “Previous Chapter” button act that way or maybe a workaround to do that?
Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

“he wants it to go to the beginning of that chapter not the start of the previous chapter.”
That is how it works for me – when I want to go to a PREVIOUS chapter, I have to hit the PREV button TWICE. First time goes to start of current chapter, next jumps to previous chapter.
If using a software DVD player to test…don’t. Use an actual DVD player to know how the disc will really behave in a hardware player that must adhere to the official DVD specification – software players can do whatever the want to.

Oh that is good to know. The DVD does work as wanted in a DVD player but not in a DVD program. is there anyway to affect how a program’s buttons work or is that just within the program?

The behavior of various software DVD players is going to be dependent on how the programmer set that up and you will likely have no control over that aspect of things. Just create and test your DVD to work correctly on a set-top (hardware) DVD player and the rest is out of your control, as you have no way of knowing how various users might view the disc later on.
