Subtitle Button on remote control

Hi,
I setup a menu to select my subtitles on or off. One button for on and one for off. This works fine. My problem is that when I press the subtitle button on my remote control, my subs don't turn on or off. How can I get the button to work?
Thanks.

(CS3) Play Button vs. Enter Button on Remote Control

Hello all-
I'm hoping the answer to this is something so obvious I couldn't help but overlook it. However, after lots of searching I still can't figure it out. Any input would be great. Thanks!
I have an Encore project with 1 menu, containing 1 button, pointing to 1 timeline. Very simple in nature. However, both in the virtual preview and on an authored disc, the remote control does not work as hoped. I find that I have to use the 'enter' button (usually between the up,down,left,right arrows) in order to play the track. The 'play' button does not work for some reason. I have the button set to auto activate so that it's selected upon the menu loading. But whether this is the case or not seems to have no bearing on the result.
I unfortunately have to dumb it down as much as possible because some of the people seeing this won't think to hit 'enter'.
Any help would be terrific. Thanks!
Justin

On menus, the Enter button is what is supposed to be pressed to activate a button. However, some players will also accept the Play button being pressed to activate the button. But not all players will activate a button when you press Play.
For instance, I have a Sony that will accept Play to activate a button. But my Pioneer will not. And my Sony PS3 will not.

Using the Menu Button in Remote Control

My question is this: Let's say I have 5 menus. When I go to the 4th menu and simulate it in DVDSP, I then hit the "menu" button on the remote but it always takes me back to menu 1. I know how to change this but I'm only able to select one option which I've set to Menu 1 but is there a way for my client to select a chapter in menu 2 and when he hits the Menu Return or Menu button that it goes back to the menu 2 which he was previously on.

Hi Charles,
Are you still facing this issue. Is this issue reproducible with every file you want to convert.

Unable to allow remote control and deny transfer files in RM

Hi, we're running ZCM 11 SP1 and I have a question about assiging rights to non-Helpdesk users for remote control only for user application support. It looks like if I deny transfer files that the button for remote control automatically changes from allow to deny. I couldn't find anything in the forums, KB, or docs to see if this is working as intended or a bug of some sort? If intended, do you know why remote control and transfer files go together, just curious? In ConsoleOne versions of remote management we had always limited non-Helpdesk remote operators and were hoping to do exactly the same with ZCM11. Thanks.

Was there ever a workaround for this? I'm seeing the same behavior in 11.2.3 and we have a need to block file transfer but allow remote management.

DVD Studio Pro - is Subtitle button remote hardwired?

When I press the Subtitle button on my menu remote, is what appears on screen determined by the HARDWARE, or can it be configured in the software?
For example, let's say I have English and French and Chinese subtitle streams on my DVD.
Can I display "Francais, Anglais, Chinoise" on screen when the subtitle button is pressed on the remote, or is it the hardware that totally determines what appears on screen?
I know that in DVD Studio Pro, you can have it jump to a specific menu you define when that button is pressed, but I ant to change subtitles on the fly.
thanks,

Heya, Bansaw:
"Hardware" would be the closest answer. It would be more accurate to say that the behaviour of the Subtitle button on a remote control is "spec" driven, meaning DVD spec. If I remember correctly, you can expect the Subtitle button to show and hide the current subtitle stream. There's a variable that sets the stream while the title is playing and that's what'll show until the stream is changed. And, changing the stream is typically menu driven (you have a "Setup" menu, right?).
And, as RatVega™ mentioned, there's no guarantee that the DVD remote will even have the button.
While I've never tried it, you could probably code the number buttons to change the variable which would change the subtitle stream; however, the user would have no way of knowing that you've cutomized the title to play in this manner.

Remote control and eject button not working?

Hey.
Not too much to explain - my remote control does not work at all, and neither does my cd eject button on the keypad. This is after the installation of Leopard.
I've tried to search for the issue but only find people complaining about the new Front Row design or how they cannot eject volumes at all. (Which is not my case)
Has some people had this error and fixed it?
Thanks in advance.

The remote control could be because I deactivated my IR receiver
That leaves my eject button.

DVD Remote Control buttons don't work when using regular DVD player

I created a DVD using DVD Studio Pro (version 3.0.2) and am unable to navigate through any menus or buttons using the DVD players remote control. I can press the play button on the actual DVD player and play the movie. How can I fix this issue? Any suggestions would be helpful!
I never changed the default setting on the file I made and the DVD works just fine in the simulator as well as any computer DVD player. Also, is there a way to make sure the DVD will play on all DVD players even if it doesn't read burned DVDs?
Thanks for the help!

Not sure if I can add anything here - you're in good hands! I'd like to know how you constructed the menus - did you use photoshop layers for the background and overlay, or did you use a pict file? Are these motion menus or static?
About the compatibility - a burned disc will only ever be about 85% compatible with the number of DVD players out there, and if a DVD player states that it cannot read from DVD-R or DVD+R discs then it most likely won't play your disc. The only way to approach full compatibility is to have the disc replicated, but the cost of this usually means it is not worth while for anything less than 500 to 1000 discs at a time. If you are using DVD±R then all you can do is take steps to make sure the disc is as compatible as it can be, such as keeping the MPEG encode less than 7.5MBPS, using AC3 audio, not applying paper labels and so on.
Compatibility is getting better in general, this summer I have burned in excess of 90 individual projects on DVD-R (and duplicated each one up to seven times each) for playback on consumer players and only one came back (so far). When I looked at it there was a chunk missing from the surface of the disc, which probably explained the error!

As this is the forum for PPC (pre-2006, non Intel) iMacs I assume that is what you have.
Try pairing the remote again:

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.

How can I get the remote control button to appear in itunes?

I cant seem to locate the remote control button that is supposed to appear in iTunes. I do not have any remote controls associated with my iTunes yet the button is not appearing. Help.

Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking the following link and selecting "Save Link as".
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
THAT's the Flash Player.
Shockwave Player 12
THAT's the Shockwave plugin.
BOTH should be up to date.

Remote Control Menu Button

Starting from the top, I have a 1st play title menu (A) with 4 buttons that are targeted to 4 other menus (B) – each of which, have multiple motion buttons leading to individual clips (C).
I would like to be able to click on the Remote Control Menu button anywhere within the DVD and have it return to the 1st play title menu (A). In the Disc Inspector, I have set the “Remote Control” pull down menu to the 1st play title menu (A).
I can achieve what I want by clicking on the Remote Control “Title” button but not the “Menu” button. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry - I made an assumption that you were not able to go fro a track to the title menu... what you are asking is to go from a menu to the title menu by using the ;menu' key.
Sadly, it won't be possible - the Menu key is designed to move only between tracks and menus. If you are in a track it will take you to a menu, once there, pressing it again willr eturn you to the track.
You need to use the 'return' key to traverse through the menus, but it isn't a robust implementation in DVDSP.
Therefore, the only way to accomplish what you want is to use the Title key on the remote control when in a menu... unless you add a button to each sub menu that jumps to the title menu.

Universal dock remote control play/pause button doesn't work

Hi all,
Ok since updating to Ipod touch software v2.2 I have been unable to use the play/pause button on my Apple universal dock remote, whilst my iPod touch is in the dock.
The volume controls and track next and previous buttons commands on the remote control work just fine.
I have tried unpairing and then pairing the remote with the universal dock but same issue. I thought that maybe the play/pause key was possibly broken. However I tested the remote on my iMac and play/pause button works fine in front row.
Any ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Strange thing is mine started working again last night and is still working. Seems the problem went away as it originally appeared. I hope it doesn't stop working.
I will mark this thread as unanswered until we can figure why the remote, universal dock and iPod touch are behaving this way.

Remote control: just the menu button working

on my new iMac 20" the only thing I can do with the remote control is bring up or close front row with the menu button, the other functions do not work - I have to press the arrow keys on the keyboard to switch from one application to the next e.g.

Ok folks, here is what I did should anybody be in the same case: I took out the battery and put it back again and than 'twisted' the remote control along its longitudinal axis till I heard a small cracking sound from the plastic material and that's it: the remote control works perfect now! there seems to be generous
tolerances in manufacturing quality here..

How do I match encore buttons with my remote control

So, I've made a menu in Encore and when I build the DVD and put it in my DVD player, the buttons don't work how I want them to with my remote control. For example, on the main menu (which I created in After Effects) I have two buttons (one above the other) - "Play" and "Chapters." To go from Play to Chapters on the main menu, I have to push the right arrow button on the remote instead of the down button.
Another example is my chapters menu (created with an Encore menu). I have 6 chapters buttons, plus a "next" and "main menu" button. The logical thing to do with the remote is press the down button when you want the one below, right when you want the button on the right etc. etc. but instead it's all mixed up.
Hopefully that makes sense . . . so how to I tell encore which button on the remote I want to be pressed to go to the desired button on the menu?

It is called "button routing." When the buttons are nicely lined up, "automatic" (the default) usually works well. But sometimes not. Also, if you move buttons around, you can change the numbering.
In the menu viewer, click on the icon for "routing." This will show you what "number" each button is, and what number button each remote arrow click will go to.
You can turn automatic routing off, and drag these numbers to set the remote as you wish.

Program STB remote control to not illuminate any buttons?

Is it possible to program the Verizon STB remote control to not illuminate any buttons when the remote is used?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Simple answer is no. It would be nice as an option since it eats up the batteries and some of the most important buttons (like the number pad) don't have illumination anyway.
