Can’t skip chapters in DVD’s made with DVD-Architect
I’m using DVD Architect 2.0
I just made a DVD which consists of eight mpg-2 video files created in Vegas. Each mpg-2 is linked to lead into the next mpg-2 when it ends, and the final mpg-2 links to the first, so that the DVD will play continuously. The DVD plays fine in all of my players (TV & computer) in it’s entirety.
The problem is that I can’t use the forward & reverse buttons on my DVD player’s remote (on any machine) to move forward and back through the chapters. I can fast forward or rewind through the chapters, but I can’t just skip through them like you can on a normal DVD.
In DVD-Architect, all of the “Remote Buttons” are enabled for each chapter. And the chapter skip feature works fine when I preview the DVD in DVD-Architect. I can’t find any disabled settings in the DVD-A project which would have anything to do with this problem… I think.
Any ideas?

You should be using the “skip” function on your remote. IOW, the >>| or the <<| buttons Jeremy

I am using the >>| and |<< buttons on every remote for every DVD player I have. In every case, on every DVD I burn in this fashion (compilations of several mpg-2's) with DVD-A, the << and >> button’s work, but not the >>| buttons. And in each case, I’ve told DVD-A to enable every possible remote function.
For a quick fix, I’m just going to render a single mpg2 containing every chapter of my project, and insert chapter markers on every segment. Then I’ll burn that as a “single move” in DVD-A

In creating the disc this way you did not create chapters. Each separate Mpeg file is a title.

Hopefully I’m not too late for this.
There’s no need to render the project again. DVDA allows you to insert markers on it’s own timeline.
And, as Gary said, insert your markers in Vegas from now on. Even if you don’t end up using them, at least they’re there.
Don’t forget to select the “Save project markers in media file” option when rendering or you’ll be doing this all over again.
