DVD Buttons

I have a movie clip about 5 people. I would like to have a button on the menu that would allow me to view each of the people. If I select person 1 using my dvd player it would show just the part of the clip about this person then return to the menu.

I read about chapters and can make a chapter point and think I can set the button to link to the chapter but how do I get it to return to the menu when it is done?

Thanks
Roger

Use the End Actions to make this happen.
Doubleclick the video button to open it in the trackview. Then choose End Action in the Media Properties.
Point your end Action back to the desired menu

Alas, there's no easy way to do this with chapter points. End actions apply to what happens at the end of the movie clip, they do not apply to chapters,

With the most recent version of DVDAS, one way to do this would be to bring the clip into the project multiple times and then set the in/out points as appropriate for each instance of the clip.

I have decided to make a clip for each person then bring these all together in the DVD
