    Hello everybody !

    Is it normal ?
    I have one movie and 6 Lists of chapters.
    It works strange with TV.

    If I push “forward” (->)on the Remote control of the TV,
    all of this list are like bound,
    they chain the readings of lists !

    If I just read, it stop like they have to do
    and return to the menu.

    Maybe it’s normal that with the remoteTV it doen’t work as same as on a computer, maybe not ! I expect for you.

    Hope you understand me, because of my english

    Not sure I understand the problem. Could you try rephrasing it?

    so thanks a lot !

    I have imported an educated film I do and have created lot of chapters on it.
    I want to be able to go from one to other one.

    By another hand, with the same film, I have done six list of chapter : three buttons for my teacher and three buttons for my pupils.

    I grabed it, read it on the computer : it seems to be ok.
    But problem with TV!
    maybe “remote control TV” is not the good world ?
    Telecommand ? …

    So, If I was reading one of the 6th part of the film on TV
    and push the Next chapter button of the telecommand,
    it read all of the 6 list, go until another part and not stop at it own end (the end of its list chapter normaly)

    … Joe?

    I think I understand now.

    Are you using chapter end actions? If so, don’t.

    Instead, use regular chapters with no end action, and then put each chapter in its own chapter playlist with the end action set to the menu.

    Then you can link a button to the timeline, which will play all the way through, or to a chapter playlist, which plays only the chapter and then returns to the menu.

    Hi

    I would like to know if the answer of Joe is the very good answer (not another one will be ok)
    or just a proposition ? (because I’ll do again the project):
    Joe : “Are you using chapter end actions? If so, don’t.

    Instead, use regular chapters with no end action, and then put each chapter in its own chapter playlist with the end action set to the menu.

    Then you can link a button to the timeline, which will play all the way through, or to a chapter playlist, which plays only the chapter and then returns to the menu.”
