Playlist items not ending at next chapter

Okay, another problem in my quest to transition from DVDSP to Encore...
I'm building a DVD with a fairly simple structure: one 22 minute long video divided into 5 chapters. My menu options are a Play All, plus five options allowing the user to play specific chapters. I've built my playlists, each referencing one chapter alone, and defined my end action for each (I've tried both returning to the next menu option and the more generic return to last menu). Straight forward so far.
The disc begins at the correct chapter when I click on a specific chapter menu item, but it doesn't stop at the next chapter - it keeps playing through the rest of the timeline to the very end of the video. (ie: if I select chapter 2 it'll drop me in at chapter 2, but then play through chapters 3, 4 and 5 before returning to the menu). I've tested in both the preview and burnt a physical disc with the same results. What am I missing!

Excellent!
Encore (probably DVDSP too?) is an abstraction layer app. It uses code to take a function that does not directly exist in the DVD spec, and builds the code the DVD needs. The front end, as you are discovering, can be very different between different apps, even though the DVD may operate identically in the end.

Smartform Error: Items not printed on next page

Hi everyone,
I am currently working on a Smartform for printing an Invoice. The problem is as follows:
I have a First page and a Next Page. There is a Summary in the footer.
If the items fit on the First page, then there is no problem. If there is space then the Summary is printed on the same page, if there is little space, then the Summary goes on to the Next page (Page Protection is applied).
The problem arise when the items do no fit on the First Page. In this case, I get a weird error saying "Unexpected Error" and some Message 003. I can't understand what the problem is!
I have various attachment pages as well and they are printed properly.
Please help me crack this error at your own leisure!
Thanks.

Hi Ameya
there might be syntax error. Try to get what exaclty is an error using following code.
CALL FUNCTION <smartform>
    EXCEPTIONS
    IF SY-SUBRC 0.
       CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_READ_ERRORS'
            IMPORTING
                 ERRORTAB = IT_ERRORLIST.
     ENDIF.
In IT_ERRORLIST you will get error message.

I have ebooks on my ipod and when I'm listening to a story it will not go to the next chapter, it just starts over again with the chapter I just listen too. How do I correct this? It didn't do this before.

ebooks is a term for (mainly) textual books that can be read on screen. If you're listening then I think you mean audiobooks. See audiobooks on iPods. Either reorganize as single files or access via a playlist.

Playlist does not contain new items after sync.

We recently pruchased 4 new songs from iTunes on the iPhone.
All 4 songs were successfully downloaded. We Sync'd the iPhone with iTunes on a Windows PC. All 4 songs are now in the library on the PC.
We then used iTunes on the PC to add the 4 new items to an existing playlist. For what it is worth, we do all our playlist maintenance on the PC and then sync back onto the iPhone and our iPad because we find playlist maintentance on both mobile devices very clunky and time-consuming.
Once we added the 4 items to the playlist, we then sync'd the iPhone and the iPad with the PC again. It all went smoothly as normal. The new songs are in the 'songs' list on both the iPhone and the iPad. However, the playlists do not contain all the songs on either devices.
The iPad sync options are set to sync the entire music library. The iPhone sync options are set to only sync specific playlists - and I checked that the playlist that contained the new songs was selected for the iPhone.
I tried creating a new playlist on the PC with just the 4 new songs and sync'd it with the iPad - the new playlist appeared on the iPad, but it only had 1 of the 4 songs in it.
I added the same *new* playlist to the selected set of playlists to sync for the iPhone. The playlist appeared on the iPhone, but this time with 3 of the 4 songs (one missing). Random! Worse, frustrating!
When I expand the device tree in iTunes on the PC (with the device still connected) to see what it thinks is in the playlist on the device, it always shows the correct content - but when you look on the actual device the content varies as above.
Can anyone shed some light on what has happened here, and preferrably, how I stop this random behavior and get this all back on track.
I believe all the software and all devices is up to date. I am running iTunes 11.1.3.8 on Windows.
Thanks in advance for any help.

*** Update ***
We purchased another song on iTunes today. We added it to one of our playlists on the PC and sync'd the iPad. On this occasion the four songs we added to playlists yesterday all sync'd correctly. However the new song we purchased today did not sync into the playlist. I can't imagine why, but is there some kind of delay built into the sync'ing mechanism somewhere?

Go to next chapter not working with Blu-ray disc

I’m using Adobe Encore CS 5 to create Blu-ray disc but when the disc is created the go to next chapter buttons do not work. In Encore when using the preview option the go to next chapter buttons do work but once the Blu-ray is created and I try to go to next chapter while playing the disc I receive a message that reads "operation not available". I have created multiple Blu-Ray projects, used different brand Blu-ray media and even used my Windows system and my Mac system but the same issue keeps happening. I’ve also played the Blu-ray on multiple Blu-ray players and it happens on all of them. The Blu-ray burner I’m using is a LG BE14NU40 External Blu-ray burner and I have contacted them but they tell me it is a problem with Encore not the burner.

Google "encore blu-ray next chapter remote".
Example: Re: Encore 5 "Next / Forward" Button Not Available For Blu-Ray?
You'll find lots of issues. This function may work if the project is very simple. But perhaps not.
You might post a screenshot of your flowchart.

Items Not In my Library vs Playlist xml Match

Hi All,
I have two theoretically identical iTunes libraries on two different machines, the only difference being compression: one library is lossy and one is lossless. The number of tracks in both libraries is the same and there are no dead tracks. When I use home sharing to show "items not in my library" nothing pops up on either machine.
In order to keep all my playlists synched across the two libraries when I add tracks to a playlist on one machine, I will export xml of the playlist, import to the other library and compare the two with a smart playlist. There are certain playlists that always throw the "itunes cannot find all of these tracks" error, but if I use Home Sharing and look at the playlist on the other machine and select "items not in my library," there aren't any.
There also seems to be a difference between how the two libraries "view" duplicates, which may have something to do with it (or not), but this difference only manifests itself with playlists. When I "view duplicates" the number is the same, but when adding tracks to a playlist via the above method the smart playlist on one machine or the other will think that a track is already there when it's not, and it won't get picked up as not being on the playlist being updated or won't make it onto the playlist that the update is coming from.
Both versions of iTunes are 12.0.1.26, both Macs running 10.9.5 (one 2 year old MB Pro, one 2 year old iMac).
Any reason anybody can see why this would be happening? Any suggestions for how to achieve these results in a less labor-intensive way?
I = all ears.

Ha! Uncanny! How the **** did you know about Teddybear's Picnic? It's just the play counts, I don't use ratings and I've pretty much appended everything else to the tracks themselves. I'm pretty close to having listened to both libraries all the way through (at least one "play" each). Once I get there I won't care about play counts any more, but I'd hate to bail out on the project now.
I just think it's odd that one library sees a track as missing from a playlist but not missing from the library and wonder why that might be, or if there's some heretofore unknown preferences controlling what counts as duplicate information in what instance.

Next-chapter button behavior at the end of a track

This is probably a silly question.
When the DVD is on the last chapter of a track, from then on I want next-chapter button to return the user to the menu screen. When I don't do anything special to the settings, DVDSP's simulation does nothing when I press the next-chapter button. But when I play the DVD back on a set-top player, pressing next-chapter begins playing a seemingly random other track. That's certainly not what I want.
How can I set the next-chapter button to return to the menu?

Press F3 to get to advanced layout
Go to Outline View
Highlight Track
Click Connections Tab in the main window (menu/viewer/connections)
You can set the next jump there (same for chapter) but not all players behave the same. Stories with a "dummy marker" which disables all user controls briefly seems to stop most of the players from jumping

Can someone please tell me how to view a newly created Genius playlist (not via Up Next, but as a stand-alone playlist)? Thank you!

>> then I get a completely blue screen.
That probably means that you're not looking at a bug in Photoshop, but a problem with a driver - and the most likely cause would be your video card driver.
And sure enough, your video card driver is almost 2 years out of date.
Please go to NVidia's website and get the latest driver - then follow their directions for installation (so you don't get bits of old driver left over).

TS1702 Hi, I downloaded Wild to my Ipad and I'm having issues. I've only read the first few chapters but at the end of each chapter the last page is duplicated for 10 pages and then it goes to the next chapter.

Quit the iBooks app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or ....Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Or ... Delete the book and download it again in the purchased tab of the iBook Store, as long as you use the same Apple ID, there is no charge to download it again.

Apple MA444LL - iPod 30 GB Digital Player Manual. Suddenly when listening to audio books it turns off at end of first chapter. Has happened with 2 different books. Have tried resetting, restarting, redownloading. Music not affected..

After playing audible books for 5 years, suddenly my ipod turns off at the same place in each of two books, around end of 1st chapter. I have tried resetting, redownloading the book(s), nothing helps. Also when I try to fast forward over that trouble spot, it won't go beyond it. Music and podcasts play fine.

Have you tried a simple reset of the iPod to see if that does any good first? To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
It might also hurt to try a full restore of the iPod in iTunes as well. This process wipes all content from the device, resets all settings back to their defaults, and reloads a fresh copy of the iPod's software onto the device. This would help eliminate the possibilty of a software issue/glitch and/or data corruption on the iPod.

Blue ray divd chapter in encore cs3 unable to navigate to next chapter

Topic " Blue ray chapter in encore the navigation does not work in either preview or folder created or on the blue ray disc
I had my first HD projected edited in premeire cs and exported back to tape without problem in High def. Then the projected was exported as mepg high def file and imported in encore project testing does not show any error. But when I preview and play a chapter from menu and then click on the next button it only momentarily goes to next chapter but returns back to begining of the chapater it was playing before. although end action for that has been properly set to go to the next chapter. In other words the menu chapters do not go and play the next chapter as they should even when the end points have been st properly. Any suggestions. One way suggested was that I should create short separate clips and put on individual time lien and then link the buttons on the menu to individual time lines rather than chapters on a single time line has this bug in encore being assressed if so how to go about it?/

I found a similar problem with the chapters in a single time line not responding at all when linked to separate buttons when I used ENcore CS3 to create the BLuRay project and burn either a folder or image (both BluRay) and then to burn the folder or image to a DVD+-R disk with ImgBurn.
I made sure there were no overrides set, and put each chapter in a separate playlist ( as had been suggested on CreativeCow's forum over a year ago and which worked nicely for me using Encore 2.0 for burning regular SD DVD's). However, this chapter to button system played ok for me in the Encore preview, but not to the burnt disk.
When I used the separate timeline technique instead of the chapters, though, the project played perfectly in BluRay players.
One complicating factor is that I am using Cineform to capture, and edit so I can't be sure that's not a factor.
I also should note, that using my cineform footage, I couldn't get the chapter markers I set in PremiereCS3 to carry over to Encore for some reason so I had to set the chapter markers in Encore.
If you wouldn't mind, would you create a short BluRay project (I assume you don't have cineform.
1. Using the chapter points being careful about the overrides and using separate chapter playlists for each chapter.
2. See if it previews properly
3. Burning a BluRay folder.
4. Burning the folder to a BD-RE disk with IMGBurn and see how that works.
Let me know how that works. Thanks.

Iphone 6 tells me that "Item not available" in my country UK, when i click on the itunes store icon for the app to open the music, movies or tv shows section of the app. is this a bug?

I am based in the UK and have just got a new iphone 6, everything works well except when i try to turn on the itunes store app - i can do a search and buy music etc that way, within the app, however, if i go to Music, Movies or the TV shows section within the Store app, i get a message come up saying "Item Not Available" - This item you've requested is not currently available in the UK Store, but it is available in the US store. Tap Change Store to view this item". I therefore cannot browse the music, movies or tv shows sections at all, nothing shows up except that message. All my previous itunes purchases have downloaded ok, and i can access them. My apple ID works fine and restrictions on the iphone are turned OFF. The App Store app works normally. Connection etc is all fine and I can access itunes in the normal way on my ipad and laptop, so this is just an iphone problem. Any ideas? is this a bug? I cant find anyone else with exactly the same problem. By the way, the same message comes up when i click on the red Music icon, on the iphone (situated next to the Safari icon) and then go to the "Store" via that app. my playlists are in tact, but as soon as i click that Store button, I am told that the Item is unavailable - not that i have chosen any Item lol, I just want to access the store in the normal way. Thank you in advance for any suggestions you can give

It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.

DVDSP: Multiple stories and problem with next chapter going to next story

I have a DVDSP4 project with 2 tracks and a story for each track. Each story has 3 chapters start, middle, end. I'm having problems when I'm testing in the simulator, the DVD is playing the first story I hit the NEXT CHAPTER button on the remote, it goes to the next chapter (in the same story). The problem is when I click NEXT CHAPTER button again, it doesn't do anything. I want it to jump to the end marker (which is a chapter marker), and then go to the next story because the End Jump is set to go to the next story.
Help is appreciated.

I ended up putting another chapter marker in the track, just before where the end is in the story, not ideal but it does allow progressing to the next story with the next button on the remote.
I'm using stories because I have the need to play different segments of the videos.

Wait for end of DVD chapter

Hi,
How can I play a DVD chapter but only until it ends and then
jump back
to a frame in my Director movie?
I know that I can use:
member("DVD").play([#title:1, #chapter:1])
Will that pause at the end of chapter 1?
Does anything special have to be encoded into the DVD chapter
at the
end?
How can I tell if chapter 1 is done?
At the moment I have a DVD that at the end of a chapter that
i want to
play, it jumps to a menu in the DVD. I want it to jump to my
Director
menu page. Can I do this without changing anything on the
DVD.
Thanks in advance
John

Encore doesn't offer a feature that would pause at the end of a chapter.
It could be done with a workaround, but instead of pressing the Play button, the user would have to press the Next button if a timeline or chapter playlist is used, or the Enter button if a menu is used.

Next Chapter jump

I'm finishing off a project in which I have a number of audio tracks set to still images. I had originally positioned Chapter Markers at the end of each, so you could jump back to the menu by selecting Next Chapter - but when building the project, these Chapter 2 Markers are not in GOP Boundaries, and I am unable to move them - so I have just the start (Chapter 1) for each audio track. Is it because the Video track is a still image that I'm unable to position markers anywhere else but the very start and very end?
Anyway, rather than using a chapter markers at the end of each track, is there a simple way of setting each track up so that when you select Next Chapter you are taken back to a particular menu/button?

On the Chapter Marker have End Jump go where you want to to go (though somteims this can be "broken" by players pressing next chapter Key fast, workaround is have that Chapter Marker "disable" all remote functions and place another marker right next to it as close as possible)
Another option (probably easier for you and also keep in mind the issue above about breaking cahpters) is to add a small "slug" of audio at same rate as main audio with video (a second or so) and you should be able to place marker. The slug can be real short to accomplish moving your marker. A second should do fine
