    We’re making a menu and want the viewer to have two options: 1: be able to play each clip individually and then be brought back to main menu OR 2: click our logo and play all. we are able to do only one or the other. what we’re trying to do is possible, right? if so, what are we doing wrong or missing? thanks so much in advance for any help.

    you need a “Play All” button that is linked to the 1st clip and the first clips end action to play the 2nd clip, etc,etc,etc
    Then you will need individual buttons for each timeline to be able to play the clips individually.. like this… “Scene-1” button linked to play “scene-1” timeline, and then set this BUTTON’S override to return to the main menu after playing the timeline. now set all the other buttons up to play their respective timelines.

    check out tutorial#8 from the INTERMEDIATE section of my website. http://www.sitesled.com/members/doogs/downloads.htm , this will make things a little clearer for you.

    hope this helps..

    Another way to do this that is easier is to create a playlist and link your play all button to the play list. Then have your individual buttons link to their respective timelines (the end aciton of the timeline should return to the menu) that way, you won’t have to use overrides and you won’t have to have two of each timeline on the dvd. You have to have 1.5 to make a playlist (by the way, otherwise you have to use overrides or have 2 of each timeline on the disc). Good luck
