Jumping back to menu after chapter has palyed

Please help me. I have been going insane trying to work this out.
Here is the story. I have imported a project into dvdsp. It runs for 1hour and 45 minutes. Its of a guy playing basketball in the states. I have created four chapters which link to each of the games throughout the dvd. What I want to do though is have other links to special highlights and then at the end of the segment have it return to the menu. I have tried creating a seperate chapter for this but when it gets to the end of the special highlites it continues on to the next game. I dont want it to do this. I want it to link back to the main menu. Do I need to create these seperately in final cut pro and import it as a seperate track into dvdsp? As I mentioned, I have only one track imported with the main chapter markings olong the timeline. Am I being really stupid by missing something so easy or what. Thankyou in advance. Matty

Your a good man Drew. The light is getting brighter all the time. If you could clarify one thing for me that would be great.
Say I have marked on my basketball games video, chapters 1,2,3 and 4. these 4 chapters are linked to the different games. If I then want to link a highlite section - say of a guy shooting cool hoops- would I then have to go to the start point of this section in the video and make a chapter mark where it starts and another chapter mark where it finishes? These 2 new chapter marks would be numbered 5 and 6 because I already have chapters 1-4 for the games. Does it matter that chapters 5 and 6 may fall between chapters 2 and 3 on the video track. To me , it just seems strange that you have to set another chapter mark for the end point. I hope this makes sense Drew. If you could get back to me or even email me. [email protected] . Thanks mate.

  • Using DVD Player, the show goes back to menu after every chapter, even though I selected "Play Entire Episode".

    It only does this on Reading Rainbow DVDs so far: Using DVD Player, the show goes back to menu after every chapter, even though I selected "Play Entire Episode".  It does this whether the laptop is plugged in or is using battery power.  How do I get it to play all??  Thanks.

    Turns out it was NOT the software or the Mac. I bought a portable DVD player and this problem happens with it, too.

  • DVDSP plays video instead of programmed jump back to menu.

    After playing one video clip, DVD is programmed to end jump to the menu, but instead, it plays another video clip, from a completely different menu. There is no doubt that the end jump is definitely to the menu, not to another video clip. What is causing this phenom?

    Hal,
    Yes, All the tracks are separate assets and separate tracks. The end jump for A is the menu from which it came.
    (Menu 2, Button 2=play videoA - jumpback to menu 2) The tracks are on separate time lines.
    I did fix the problem, but created a new one! (SEE BELOW, I'd love to see if you have anysuggestions for the new problem)
    I think the program just freaked out.
    It really did not make any sense at all. I tried to delete the one track that kept attaching itself to the wrong buttons. (track d)
    (Menu 2, Button 2=play videoA - jumpback to menu 2, had become: Menu 2, button 2= play video A & video D from menu 4 button 3 then jump back two menu 2)
    I deleted track D from it's proper menu and button, removed it as an asset in the button editor, removed it's button from it's menu, removed it from the graphical, and then went to remove it from the assets folder. But dvdsp told me that it could not be deleted from assets folder because is was "in use by track A and track B" That was wierd because the tracks were in no way linked.
    So I deleted all the offending tracks A, D and B, and reimported them into assets and reprogramed them to the buttons in the appropriate menus.
    That fixed that problem! Now the videos play as they should when the correct buttons are activated. BUT that created a new problem.
    NEW PROBLEM:
    Now I can not see images in the buttons for A,D, or B. That is to say, I've got fifteen buttons each is assigned a freezeframe from the buttons' target video (Button Asset). I see the video freeze frame in all the buttons except for these three. In those buttons, all i see is the background. They are all programmed just as the rest are in the button editor, the target video is assigned to the button and them the button asset is assigned to be same as target video, motion is NOT clicked as I want a single frame to be seen.
    But even though the settings are the same for all the buttons, these three won't show up.
    I'm thinking its like a memory problem.... but it can't be. I've got 4GHZ of ram and 400 Ghz hard drive, of which 290GHZ is available.
    Any suggestions?

  • Is there anyway to get back my bookmark after it has been overwritten, otherwise deleted?

    What I'm trying to look for are any JSON files earlier than December 16th, 2010. Is there anyway to get back any bookmarks after it has been overwritten, otherwise deleted?

    Only photos on your Camera Roll are backed up. Those can be restored by restoring from your iCloud or iTunes Backup.

  • Return to main menu after chapter...

    Is iDVD capable of returning to main menu after a certain chapter plays? The reason I ask is because I have a clip I would like to keep "hidden" - it's technically chapter 3, but I don't want it to play as part of the movie - I only want it be played by selecting "extra scene" in the main menu (don't really want it in the scene selection menu, but i'd take that also)- but I have a feeling iDVD can't do that... I hope i'm wrong though.
    Another thing - i'm putting together a dvd with concerts - is it possible to have a menu and a scene selection menu for EACH show? For instance - concert #1 would have a menu - with a scene selection spot - and concert #2 would have the same - and 3 and so on... Of course, that brings me back to my first question - can these play without running together?
    or do I need DVD Studio Pro? cause I think that's probably what i'm gonna have to look into.

    Separate iMoive or FC projects can be input separately.
    You can split a moive and import only what you want by exporting it to Quicktime alone.
    But if something is a part of your main video project, it will play along with the other parts.
    You can delete its chapter selection from your menu, but the video will still play in order in the project.
    And, no iDVD can't return to the main menu from a certain chapter in the project.
    The only way to do that is to (as stated above) import that video separately.
    I'd say you still have a lot of options before you jump to DVDSP.

  • Jumps back to beginning after editing sequence in timeline?

    After I have done some edits in the timeline(within a work area) and I hit return it invariably jumps back to the very beginning of the timeline.
    Could you tell me please what I can do to solve this?
    Many Thanks

  • Doesn't jump back to menu at the end.

    After playing the last chapter it would not go back to the main menu. What is the problem?
    thanks,

    Thanks a lot; I was looking for that jump feature until I got the answer. I had to double click on the track to get that. But what puzzles me that in all other projects I did not have to specify the jump feature. It worked without. I went to check the setting and it says jump NOT SET! Why did it jump?
    Thanks anyway I will try to set jump to menu.

  • How to reimport music in IPOD back to ITUNES after computer has crashed?

    i know this question has been asked before, and i have followed the instructions 'macmuse' posted. however, when i plug my ipod into the USB port, my computer does not recognize it as an IPOD it only shows up as an external drive. when i click on it, my computer asks me if i want to reformat the IPOD so that it can recognize it. has anyone else had this problem? i don't know how else to get my songs back on my computer if my computer cannot recognize/work with the IPOD when i plug it in. i have downloaded all necessary programs on my computer, and the IPOD is brand new - perhaps the old way of reimporting music no longer works? please help, i'd so appreciate any input!

    A search on google will probably find utiltities that can be used to copy music off an iPod and onto a computer - after you've done it you then just need to do File > Add Folder to Library in iTunes (but I would advise maintaining a backup on an external drive from now on). This fairly old thread mentions some utilities that were around at the time the message was written http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9990366#9990366
    In terms of getting notifications, if you go into 'My Subscriptions' on the right you should get options to 'Always subscribe to topics I create' and 'Always subscribe to topics I reply to' - selecting the first should get what you want (though I've never tried it).

  • Enable Instant-On reverts back to checked after it has been unchecked.

    Has anyone figured this one out? I asked this some time ago as well. Last I heard was that this option was only for streaming servers, but I would think if it were unchecked, it ought to remain so no matter what it was for. The option to play immediately or to choose a long delay is no longer available either - it always goes back to short delay.

    It is only used by files from streaming servers. I usually only find a few such files each year. Apple Keynotes are the most common ones and a few hours after the "live" version a non streaming version is offered.
    Snow Leopard (OS 10.6) doesn't even have the setting anymore.
    You can tell a true "streaming" file by its URL as most begin with rtsp://

  • Some Preferences not sticking ie screen saver jump back to random after setting a particular screen saver

    I set a specific screen saver in the preferences file, after a reboot, random savers box is always checked. Also when I move items to the side bar they stay there until a start-up after which they have disappeared.
    Thx  AL

    I think that it is something wrong with kernel and graphic drivers but i'm not able to solve it from the beginning of using of Arch by me.
    I'm not so sure this issue is software-related only because in my case it seems the laptop screen enters power-saving mode (10-min timeout) on its own without any events logged (as shown by dmesg) so my next thought was OK, I'm going to get rid of this issue disabling the screen power-saving timeout in the BIOS and set it to never power down or something like that and from then on managing power mode manually; ie: when I want to power down I will just use systemctl suspend/hibernate which work fine ... problem is: there are no related options in my BIOS for such timeout.
    The only timeouts I have are in /etc/systemd/logind.conf set to 30min (#IdleActionSec) (commented) by default so these are not in effect because the screens goes blank after 10m which is less than the (default) 30m in logind. Maybe setting loggind to 9m (un-commented) to catch the event before the machine-default one ?
    IdleActionSec=9min
    IdleAction=suspend
    Will check it and report back.

  • Can I revert back to 10.8 back 10.9 after it has been updated on an iMAC

    Two computers were updated to Mavericks at the school.  The the other computer are running 10.8 including the server.  Since the two were updated there have been multiple problems with them.  One has the spinning ball and the other keeps getting the message OSX needs to repair your Library (when I up in the user and password the window goes away but comes right back in a few seconds.  My thought is the only solution is to revert back to 10.8.  Can this be done and how do I do it.

    Make sure you have a backup.

  • Jumping back to Menu once clip ends

  • After selected chapter is over, player will not revert back to menu screen

    Hello, Can someone please point me in the right direction, I have exported a movie with transitions, titles and chapter markers to idvd using the export to idvd function, I have everything looking good on the flowchart, idvd has recognized my chapter markers and split them accordingly, no problems, however when I go to test play the movie and choose scene selection>then a chapter> the desired chapter plays but then when it is over the player does not revert back to the menu, like it should, what happens is that it keeps on playing the movie chapter after chapter, is anyone else having issues with this.

    Actually John is right on the money. The way the scene selection menu functions is identical to that of a commercial dvd (plays from the selected scene forward to the end of the dvd).
    Normally it returns to the main menu thereafter .... Unless one chooses to make an autoplay dvd and selects the loop function as well (in which case it would not return to the main menu but rather keeps playing in Kiosk mode).
    If one wishes to play chapters as independent movies, then one must break said QT movie into separate sections either in iMovie or with QT Pro or any other apple (or 3rd party mac compatible) video editing app.

  • After Update Bizarre jump back to Finder Behavior

    I have always dutifully used Software Update to stay on top of things.
    In some cases it has revealed problems. What a surprise.
    The most recent update to 10.4.5, or the latest Security update has introduced an annoying behavior that doesnt make much sense and I wonder if anybody else has encountered it.
    If I have multiple windows open (Safari, Mail, iPhoto...) after less than 30 secs. the user interface always jumps back to the Finder, no matter what I am doing. As I type this if I hesitate for more than a few seconds the keyboard wont respond because I am in the Finder again...GRRRR...irritating behavior. You then have to click on the window (Safari whatever it was you were doing) to then continue scrolling, typing whatever.
    Anybody else? No its not Screen saver activating its like 15-30 sec delay and Bam back to the Finder.
    I have reported this to AppleCare (mine just expired) and the case number is 60078651...the squeaky wheel gets greased if you experience the same issue use this case number to complain en masse.

    Hi, f/64.
    1. Well, you can delete the Finder preferences (see also my "Finder Issues? How to delete its preferences" FAQ) as macjack suggests, but I don't think that's the issue.
    2. It sounds like some application or background process is actually switching the focus to Finder. Since this seems to have arisen after recent updates, this makes me suspect a Startup or Login Item that has been rendered incompatible by the update. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
    3. A good way to avoid such problems with updates is to follow the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ.
    4. You've not provided any information concerning your Mac itself: model, RAM, if you are using a third-party keyboard or mouse (brands of each), etc. so more details about your system would be helpful.
    5. A couple of "off the wall" ideas:
    • An errant folder action script. If you've not enabled any of these, don't worry about that.
    • Some people have experimented with installing FrontRow on Macs which did not come equipped with such via a variety of hacks posted on the Internet. This has caused some problems, including the loss of all menu extras, the icons on the right side of the menu bar, and repeated crashes of SystemUIServer, which controls menu extras.
    6. After the problem occurs, you may want to check Console for clues.
    Good luck!

  • Possible have a jump to menu at chapter marker?

    I'm not sure how to set this up.
    Got a hr long show for teachers, w/34 chapters. Want to have a play all/thru capibility as well as the
    individual chapters. After a chapter play, and before the next, would return to the chapter menu.
    Is that possible without putting each chapter on a track so's can end jump back to the menu?
    Thanks in advance.
    p2

    You need to make use of Stories to do what it is you want to do. Define Stories for each of your Chapter Markers. Have them return to the chapter menu on end play.
