  DVD Architect Menu Malfunction. No highlighted buttons when returning to menu.

  Hello, I am using DVD Architect Pro 6, Build 237.

  I produce DVDs (blu-ray) of dance performances. I like to include a main start menu, with a Play Button and a Button to Act 1 and Act 2 menus with Buttons to various chapters from the show. I do not use thumbnail video clips for chapter buttons. I simply have a text button.

  I have mixed success getting back to a (working) main menu after launching to a chapter. I have one movie file on the dvd. I set the movie file’s End Action to Menu or Most Resent Menu. I have tried both. What happens is when returning to the main menu, the navigation is not there. There is nothing highlighted like when first putting the disc in the player. The only way to do anything at that point is to eject the disc and re-insert it. The only way to do anything at that point is to eject the disc and re-insert it. The weird thing is, I have had some discs that work, but I have no idea why.

  I attached a video showing what happens. I jump to a chapter then try to hit the back button on the remote, which does nothing. Then I hit the Menu button on the remote which brings it to the main menu, but it doesn’t work. I attached a video showing what happens.

Also If the movie is allow to play till the end after jumping to a chapter, it goes back to a non functioning main menu.

  Another note, If the play button is selected, the movie is allowed to play, I can skip through the chapters, hit the menu button and the main menu works fine. It only seems to not work when a jump to a chapter is made.

  Any help is appreciated. No one has complained yet about the previous dvds I’ve produced, but I would like to try and make them function as they should.

  Thanks in advance~
