Menu buttons not working in Apple DVD Player

I am having a real problem. I have a menu with three buttons. The default button takes you either of the other buttons (depending on whether you press right or down on the remote). These two buttons are auto-action and proceed imediately to other tracks. This works perfectly in home DVD players and in the Apple DVD Player using the "remote". Howver, if I try clicking the buttons using a mouse on the Apple DVD Player window, they DO NOT work! I have buttns over video on the same disc and these work perfectly by clicing on them with the mouse. Has anyone else had a problem like this and if so, have you found a solution? Many thanks!

Is the one that doesn't work a layered menu? DVD Player does not work correctly with layered menus, it takes one click to switch to the selected state, and a second click to activate the button.

  • Invisible Auto Action Buttons not clickable in Apple DVD player

    I've put some Easter Eggs in my menus which are invisible and auto-action.
    In simulator, you can access them with the controller by pressing a particular arrow button from a particular selected menu item. They are also accessible by clicking directly on them with the mouse.
    But in Apple DVD player they are only accessible with the controller; clicking on them with the mouse doesn't work.
    Is this just a limitation of Apple DVD player?

    If you've set them to be Invisible why would you expect them to be clickable. The whole point surely is that they are Invisible.

  • Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

    Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
    Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
    I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

    I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.

    Is there an "APPLE STORE" in India or you just went in a reseller store?
    There is a replacement program for sleep/wake button for free. Just look for an Apple Store and make a reservation at Genius Bar.
    I have an iPhone 5, bought in Dubai U.A.E.
    It is a US model (model A1428) which is different of the model use here in Italy/Europe
    My serial number is qualified for battery replacement program.
    I thought the Apple Store wouldn't repair my phone because I bought it from another country , a different model and it is already out of warranty.
    The Apple store's staff just checked if my iPhone's serial number is eligible for the program and he replaced the battery for free today.

  • Sub menu buttons not working on mobiles

    Why are my sub menu buttons not working on mobile phones but working fine on computers?

    You are using a Spry menubar widget. Spry was created pre-touch-screen systems and hence not designed for touch screens.
    There are a number of solutions available to you
    1. Don't have an active link on the main menu item
    2. Place submenus in the page that is opened by the main menu item, e.g. as a vertical menu
    3. Use Spry Menu Bar ver 2.0
    3. Use a different menu system that is geared to accommodate touch screens
    Because of the demise of Spry, see here http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l, option 3 looks like the best option.
    There are a number of free-of-charge jQuery menubars, you could also opt for one of the commercial menubars such as PVII, WebAssist or DMXZone

  • First Play "Not Permitted" on Apple DVD player

    I have some duplicated DVD-Rs of a project, and the client ha reported a disutrbing error. I've been told that on several different Macs running OS 10.2 - 10.4, not only does the disc not auto launch DVD player and not auto-play the first play menu, but when the user presses play on the floating control, they get a "Not Permitted" message. The user reported that they were able to choose "open Video_TS" and navigate to the VIDEO_TS folder on the disc, at which point they were able to get the disc to play.
    The disc include a significant amount of content on the ROM sector of the disc, including an autorun and an .exe file for windows users. However, I can't see how the presence of these ROM files could interfere with the operation of DVD Player and the VIDEO_TS folder on the disc.
    Furthermore, the duplication master for this disc has been formatted directly from DVD studio as a standrd DVD volume - no Toast burn, hybrid volume formatting, anything like that.
    Upon inspection I discovered that my authoring assistant had specified a pre-script on the first play menu. I try never to use pre-scripts for anything, as I have found the way DVD studio handles them to be unreliable. However, I suspect this pre-script on the first play menu as the culprit in this problematic behavior, and have removed it.
    The problem consists in that I did not experience this problem with any of the DVD-R checkdiscs I burned from DVD studio, unti the discs were duplicated. We'll be doing a full-scale replication run as the next step. Since I am not able to reproduce this problem on discs I burn here, I'd like find a way to know I have fixed the problem.
    My question is, has anyone else ever encountered issues with their first-play menu throwing up this "not permitted" condition in Apple DVD Player? Has anyone ever found a connection between this issue and pre-scripts, or between this issue and any ROM files?
    I suspect that DVD studio's pre-scripts are "simulated" or translated through the abstratction layer of DVD studio in a way that allows them to be outside the DVD spec, or perhaps there are other ways DVD studio might be using the pre-command on a menu, such as when you specify a button selection for a menu, that use the menu pre-command, and override the pre-script you might have spcified for the menu.

    I've seen it on replicated masters when a dvd-r master was used and not all regions were selected as ok to play. DSP doesn't 'check' region 7 by default... its best to use a region all project and .img files, not VIDEO_TS builds to the HD.
    How were the discs duplicated though? That is probably the cause of the problem, not the pre-Script. Maybe a 'Data' disc was burnt and not a DVD-Video type option...

  • Buttons not working in Flash 9 Player

    I recently created a header bar in Flash 8. All of the menu
    buttons were working perfectly in Flash 8 but do not in Flash 9.
    Did some rules change? The buttons all call getURL functions to
    load pages.

    If your Flash 9 movie is using AS3, you have to use
    navigateToURL() instead of getURL().

  • Menu button not working

    I've got a 6gb mini, had it since Sept 05. Yesterday the menu button stopped working, so I can't choose what music it plays, it only plays on shuffle as I can't get back up. I haven't done anything to it so I wondered what to do. I got my iPod in the US but I live in the UK. I bought the Applecare Protection Plan when I got it but forgot to enroll it, so I don't know if it's still valid. It should still be covered under the protection but I don't know if I've left it too late to register it. What do I do?

    If doing a Restore and reset do not help, very likely a hardware issue
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ at your own risk

  • Menu buttons not working/highlighting on burned DVD

    Hi all,
    So, I'm encountering a problem with my iDVD 7.1.1 project.  When I burn a DVD of my project and play it in my BluRay DVD player (It's a new LG), the menus on the first screen that come up work fine, but once I go to any menu off those, the highlight button color and button effect flash a few times on my first option (which, in this case, is "play movie") and then disappear.  I have a few other options in that same menu and I can't highlight any of them.  After about 5 or 10 seconds of pressing the select button on my remote, I can sometimes get the first "play movie" option to work, and my movie will start playing.  The project I've created works fine when I save it to a disc image, mount it on my computer, and play it in DVD Player- I can navigate perfectly through all my menus and all button highlighting works properly.  It also works perfectly previewing it in iDVD.  Per advice on the board, I've burned a DVD-R at 4x write speed with Toast, using the Disc Copy option and reading from my mounted image file DVD.  Media is Memorex.  I've encoded the DVD project at Professional Quality.  I suppose it could be an issue with my player, so I'm going to attempt to use another DVD player later today and see what happens.  Does anyone have any other suggestions or things I can try?
    Thanks in advance,
    Evan

    For anyone else that may encounter this problem, I found a solution on the boards that another user (colorgrader1) discovered: it has to do with static menus being set to a timed loop duration:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2242205?threadID=2242205
    If you set the loop time to "0 seconds," the problem is fixed and the DVD will play in standalone DVD players.

  • Apple Remote Menu button not working on 80gb Classic iPod

    The subject pretty much sums it up, I tested the Menu button with Frontrow and it works as expected...is my dock broken or is the iPod bad?
    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Wow. So, they sell it with a device that is made for iPods.
    They put a button on it that reads "Menu", just like the button on the iPod, but doesn't provide the same function, in fact, no function at all, while it would be great if it HAD this function.
    Interesting. I don't think even Microsoft would dare to pull this one off.
    It's tricky, but anyone who can sell me this non functional button as a "feature, not a bug" is definetely on their way to a great career start...salesman, Apple spokesperson, politics

  • Bigger/Smaller Buttons not working in Apple Mail!

    Hello All,
    I recently used Migration Assistant to move everything from old to new computer.
    Everything works in Mac Mail except the Bigger and Smaller buttons for text point size.
    I could use Cmmd + Minus/Add signs but miss the button functionality.
    Any ideas???
    Thank you!

  • Layered menu buttons not working when built.

    I have a project that has one menu and one track. The menu has 7 buttons linked to 7 different markers in the track. When I run the simulation in DVD SP, the buttons link fine, and play as they should...but when I build the project and run it in DVD player or burn it to a disk, the buttons do not work.
    If I create a non-layered menu, the buttons will work when built...
    I feel like i'm just missing one little setting on the layered menu
    Thanks

    Don't forget that a layered menu will normally need two presses to get anything to happen, one to select the button and the second to activate it.
    That said, are you sure that you have got the psd file set up correctly? I would recommend using a background layer with everything on it that you want to appear when not selected, then only adding layers with the changes necessary to show the button selection/activation.

  • DVD's not working on Sony dvd player

    I just bought some TDK DVD-R 16x. I burned a DVD with my iMac G4 in iDVD. I tried to play it in my Sony DVD player and it said it was was not allowed because there were limitations or something. Can I fix this or do I need new DVDs??

    Suggest you create a disc image and then burn the
    DVD. File/Save as Disc Image...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
    This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may
    encounter. Once the disc image is created,
    double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that
    should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn
    the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually,
    you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
    There are variations to this process based on which
    OS X you are using...
    Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in
    Applications folder), click on the virtual disc
    (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the
    Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your
    SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn
    icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R
    preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait.
    Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor
    over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to
    work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower
    for best results. Then click the Burn button.
    -->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to
    click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This
    may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
    Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk
    to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD.
    Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD
    Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and
    open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio
    disks.)

    I'm reading through the forums trying to figure why I am not able to play a DVD burned in iDVD that is "R", but the "RW" ones work fine.
    Your post is very helpful and I've looked at the links suggested too. I just want to make sure I'm understanding. I've copied the movie to my hard drive using iMovie and then created an iDVD project. I then need to use either Disk Utility or Toast to make the DVD. I do not need to use the "burn" feature in iDVD. Is that correct?
    I would appreciate any other suggestions. Maybe there is something else in the settings or preferences I need to adjust.
    Thanks so much.

  • Menu Buttons not working

    I have produced a DVD from movies made in imovie HD 6.0.3 using iDVD version 6.0.4 and find that the buttons cannot all be selected by the DVD player remote control and also the buttons do not appear to be navigated in the correct order. I would appreciate some advive, please.

    Different themes seem to work differently, but in general I have found that the buttons in iDVD created DVDs don't always behave like commercial DVDs in respect to what happens when I hit buttons on my DVD player remote. It been that way as long as I remember.
    iDVD includes MANY simplifying assumptions that make things easier for home users. If you want full control of what the menu buttons do, you need something like DVD Studio Pro. Most of us just live with the 'quirks'.

  • Power button not working on TV -DVD

    Green power light stays lit, but power button does not work on TV with DVD player, model number 23HLV87. Set was purchased in 2008.  Also, beeping sound soon after power comes on.

    Try leaving it unplugged overnight. Then try it again. If the problem persists, it may require servicing.
