This a long standing problem I have & not been able to work out. When I create a BD-R with menus I have a top menu with 'Play all' & 'Chapters', all works well going to Chapters and via a back button to the top menu, great. If I Play All and during play hit top menu it goes to the top menu if I play from Chapters ( some times over 6 choices) and I hit Top Menu on my remote it returns to the top menu and not the Chapters screen. Is there a way to return to the screen from which you initiated the play? :?

Hi Eagle Eye

I hope I am understanding your project correctly.
I loaded up one of my old DVD projects as an example and inspected how I set up the Menus.
In this project there is just one large video on the DVD and I have added a large number of Chapter Points to that one video - I am assuming this is similar to your own project.

Here is the Main Menu and it has two buttons on it - one simply plays the whole video and the other is linked to a chapters menu.
If I click on the main menu page and look at Menu Page Properties/Remote Buttons, I have Top Menu function turned ON.



If I then select the Scene Selection menu, I am now in a different menu page.
Once again, I go to Menu Page Properties/Remote Buttons for this different menu and now set Top Menu function to OFF.
I make sure that any further Scene Selection menu pages are also set the same way.

Then I played this disc in my Blu-ray player, went to the Scene Selection menu and started playing one of the Scenes.
When I press Top Menu during a Scene Selection playback, it goes straight back to the Scene Selection menu I started with.
So for me this works, however I am not sure if there may be any variance between different brand DVD/Blu-ray players and their functionality. There shouldn't be, but I never trust any technology today.



Regards
Derek

I didn't realise amount of control that can be applied to a button. I referred to the Help menu after reading your reply and have printed out the chart of controls to study. Thanks, my query is fully answered, cheers.
