Jeff, I tried both preview methods and they both do the same thing. I also tried to burn a disc and build a DVD folder, but each one of those gave me an “Unknown error” dialogue box after about 2 minutes and stopped burning the disc or building the folder.

Jeff, The project is a 3 GB video of questions and answers for a 34 chapter biology course. The main menu is a seven button listing to link to chapters 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, etc. Those links then take you to a screen with five buttons to chose the specific chapter, and then when you chose the chapter link, it goes to another menu to chose an idividual question to play. Once a question is selected to play, it plays all the way through the end of the timeline unless the viewer stops it. Each submenu has a back button and a main menu button, as well. The first play is an 8 second video/audio clip of our logo that should then default to the Main Menu, but instead it jumps to the Q/A either of question 19, 20 or 21 in chapter 28.
I am pretty certain that every time I have previewed it, I have done so through the File Preview method. I haven’t used the Preview from Here on this project. I also have not tried any of the other suggestions you have, but I will do so and see what happens. It may take me a little while as I am not a video guy and am just slogging through this (with your excellent help) the best I can. I will repost when I have tried your suggestions and let you know what happens (unless you have any other ideas after reading the way the presentation is structured). Thank you for your ideas.

Jeff, thank you for the fast reply! I went through the entire project and indeed there were four overrides (all associated with button function), which I removed as you recommended. I figured that would do it, but, unfortunately, when I previewed the project, it did the exact same thing it was doing before I removed the overrides (but I am glad I took the time to get the overrides out since it sounds like these really cause a lot of problems with 1.5). I am relatively certain I have removed all of the overrides (I checked it a third time and everything was OK). Do you have any other suggestions? Thank you for your help.

Hi, I am having a similar problem as Belinda, but with a couple of differences. First, I am using Encore 1.5. Second, I have a link that is doing doing something very strange. It is the first play, a short video/audio clip, and after it plays I have it set to go to the main menu. However, it goes to the middle of a track well into the project. No matter what I do with the clip, it goes to the same place after it is done playing. I tried to put the clip in its own menu and when it was done playing, it went to the same middle of the project track. I did the things Jeff described in his post, but even when I tried the override method, after it was done playing, it still went to the same track. I just cannot figure out what the problem is. Thanks for any help….I know this is an old version and maybe everyone is rusty.
