Scripting the STOP button

I swear I've searched for this topic and found nothing.
It's pretty basic-- when I author a disc and test it, I press the Stop button on the Remote.
It sits there with a black screen.
I have gone through the excellent DVD Studio Pro 4 Peachpit Apple Pro Training book and the closest example I could find dealt with scripting for two menus.
For this project I have only one menu. I have tried to generalize the example to set a GPRM for 1 value (1, in fact) and a second pre-script to Compare if menuID=1. I've attached this to Disc end jump. That doesn;t feel right but there's no place to attach it to, oh, something logical like THE STOP BUTTON.
It ain't working! Stop leaves me with black screen.
Pretty basic. Is scripting overkill for a simple escape command while in Play?
Help appreciated.

[Your a little confused on the purpose of scripts. You can't attach a script to the Stop button.]
I'm not confused, my POST is confused!
I'm aware remote control buttons can't be scripted, but actions and events can. Somewhere.
Clueless users often expect something helpful when the stop button is pressed, rather than being taken to their player system screen and completely out of the disc. I was certain there was a way to head off this action. Okay, I may be wrong and I'm taking on far too much work looking for a solution. Stop does mean stop, after all. But some folks don't realize there are one or more menu buttons to keep them in the disc. They press stop and then they have to press Play, and navigate to their favorite submenu, etc.
Russ (hi!) --
Yeah, I always plug in Return. Those Playback Controls in Advanced however look like they disable controls. I've stayed away from them.
Thanks, guys.

The Stop button does not show except when I'm customizing settings

I have just upgraded from FF 3.6 to FF 8. The Stop button (X) does not appear between the Reload and Home buttons.
However, if I right click the menu bar and select Customize... , the X appears as it should, then disappears again when I close the Customize... box.
Thanks for your assistance. This may be tied to the other error I'm receiving:

Thanks, SafeBrowser. Step 3 did the trick!

How do i change what the stop button does

Is it possible to change the behavior of the 'STOP' button depending on the state of the 'PLAY' button? What I would like is this; When Logic is playing the 'STOP' button stops play leaving the playhead where it is. If the stop button is pressed again (while logic is stopped) the playhead returns to it's previous position.
This is how I've always used the transport in cubase and it works really well when tracking.
Thanks in advance!

Right-click, or click-hold on the stop button to bring up a list of possible behaviors.

How can I have the stop button go to a picutre

On commercial dvds, when you push the stop button it goes to a picture.
How can I do the same thing on my dvds?
I am using Encore 1.5

Ruud,
Thanks for that link. I thought that I'd read every post (except for Mac Errors, and the earliest Subtitles posts), but must have missed this one. Just got the PDF and will learn from it.
Jay,
I thank you for asking about this feature, as I had never paid close enough attention to my commercial DVDs to notice, and hence never asked about it.

Why no mention of the stop button on mp3 playe

im from the old scholl, belt and braces etc...
bought this new mp3 thingy (zen touch) lovely bit of kit, 20mb and only ?25
dosnt bother me its like a brick, im a bit big myself!
played with it and and got ,000 songs on it, absolutley smashing
only one small problem, wheres the STOP button :angry:
i've looked and looked, cant find it, im pausing it, im switching it off
but no sign of a bloody stop button, either on the machine or in the booklet
so i register here and try a search, i find lots of questions about a stop button
lots of good answers and it all make sense, but if its that obvious and makes complete sense
why dont creative put it in the booklets?
i dont want or need one, but i would like to know i dont want or need one
why keep the information a secret?
oh the touch is a the biz, love it
stop moaning about the touch pad, im a brickie woith large calous hands an i can work it fine
will

hi trance
thanks for the reply, sorry i rambled you may have missed my point
i dont require a stop button, i quite like the fact that pause /play do the job better
what i and others would like though, is somebody incuding it in big letters in the booklet
a phrase like "oh for the dummies, theres no STOP button" and small explanation why
thers 70 odd pages in the cd manual im sure somebody could fit that in.....
cheers

My iPod 5th gen is skipping 3-5 songs when I try to select a song and has the 'stop' button beside multiple songs?

Literally, over night, my iPod started acting weird. I cannot choose a song, when I do, it automatically skips about 3-5 songs before finally playing one. If I try to go to the next song if I do not like the song it landed on, it still skips 3-5 songs again.
Also, where all my songs are, a lot of them have the 'stop' button as if I was playing them already.
I have tried restarting and restoring and nothing had helped. Any ideas?

Can't find the "stop" button after updating to firefox 8

I just updated to Firefox 8 and can no longer find the "stop" button to prevent a website from loading if I inadvertently hit the enter button too soon. I looked under customize toolbar but don't see it. Icons I've got are back, forward, address bar, star, down arrow reload, google search bar, popup blocker, and home.
thank you

Thank you !!!

on the X1 model remote XR5 v4-R, where is the stop button?

There isn't one. In most cases EXIT serves as stop.

Lost the STOP button with upgrade to FF9

I cannot get the STOP button to appear on the Navigation Toolbar since I upgraded to FF9. Where did it go?

It has been a combined button by default on the end of the location bar for some time now.
While a page is loading it is a stop button, because that is when you may wish to stop it, and once it is loaded it becomes a reload button, because you may then wish to reload the page.
It may be customised by dragging it off the end of the location bar and reversing the order of the buttons, you then get two separate buttons see:

Logic gets stuck in a funny kind of loop when i hit the stop button twice!

Hello,
i bought a Midikeyboard Novation Remote 61.
Working with Logic is just fine except one Problem:
since i got the remote i've a problem whereby if i hit the stop button twice on the remote logic gets stuck in a funny kind of loop at the start of the song
Does anyone else have this problem and how can I get it fixed?

Only thing that I can think of is that it is triggering some sort of repeat trigger (I had this with my ProjectMix) on a command. Check and see where your stop button is mapped to in the controller assignments (in your prefs) and see if it is mapped as a key command with a key repeat. That's all I can think of for a start.

Where did the "Stop" button go on the Navigation Bar in ff4? It isn't included in the Customize box. Is there anyway to install the "Stop" button for loading web pages or is this option compeletly gone from Firefox now?

Just installed upgrade to Firefox 4.0. Where did the "Stop" button go on the Navigation Bar. I checked the Customize dialogue box and it isn't included. Is anyone else missing it? Is there anyway to install the "Stop" button for loading web pages or is this option completely gone from Firefox now? It was a very helpful button and allowed us users to stop a web page and move on if it wasn't what we needed.

In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.
When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.
If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again. For more details on customizing the toolbar see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar

Subvi does not stop from the mainVi immediately when the stop button pressed in the mainVi

Hi guys,
I have a mainVi which has a subVi inside. I want to have a kind of emeregency stop button in my mainVi.
when I pressed the button, the program does not stop instantly. it does one loop and then stops.
please help me to solve this problem.
Attached you can find the Main and SubVI

This is basic dataflow. Any code is available to run as soon as data is present on all its inputs. No data is present at its outputs until all the code inside has completed.
What this means in your case is that the stop button will likely be read almost instantly when the while loop starts an iteration. It will not be read again until the start of the next iteration. This is why it will usually take an extra iteration to stop. You can either force it to read the stop button after the other code inside the loop completes or use a Producer/Consumer (events) architecture where the stop button will be read in a parallel loop containing an event structure.
It also means that the Move_MINI subVI has no means of responding to any external events (such as the stop button being pressed) after it has started running. All the other subVIs are missing so it is hard to tell what is going on. From the control labels and VI names I suspect that this may be some kind of motion control system. If so it probably takes 100s of milliseconds to seconds or longer to complete a move. To allow an external event to modify the behavior of such a VI, you need a means of communication between the event (stop button) and the VI. A notifier may be an appropriate choice. The VI also needs to be configured in such a manner that it never goes more than about 100 ms without an opportunity to stop. Without knowing more about the subVIs, I cannot say how this might work.

Programming the stop button

Hello!
I am collecting data and processing it in the same vi. Now i need to store the peak of every waveform collection (separate runs) and plot them separately. How can i do this? Can i run another vi automatically when the stop button is pressed? Can i program this in the vi?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am including a Vi where you can detect the peak of the waveforms & sequentially store peak values into the array & plot into waveform graph. Here when you press "Stop", a sub vi opens. When you stop sub vi by pressing "Stop" button placed on the front panel of sub vi, both the vi are stopped.
Hope this helps. Incase of any problems, your feedbacks are welcome.
Best Regards,

Wheres the STOP button.

Sorry about this and I know it sounds stupid but where is the STOP button on an IPOD.
Thanks for any help.

And if you want the iPod to sleep, just hold the play button down until it goes dark. I usually slide the lock then, especially if I don't want it accidentally being woken up in my bag or something.

I need the 'STOP' button on the menu

I just upgraded to FireFox 9.1 and I lost the 'STOP' button. Could you please let me know how to get it back.
Thanks

'''synergytax''', The Stop and Reload buttons as said above may likely be on far right end of your Location (address) bar. With the Customize window open you can move the Stop and reload buttons to almost anywhere you want.
If you want them side by side after moving them and not combine. Either place them as Stop then reload or if Reload the Stop place something in between like a flexible space to keep them from combing.
