End Action Links do not work

I need to make a simple loop on one piece of media in a project.

Nothing I do will make the disc navigate to anything other then the parent menu. It seems end actions are ignored completely on media which makes Blu-Ray authoring in 5 just about worthless.

Just to be extra cheeky, the preview works so you won't notice the bug until you burn, but Cyberlink software, a Samsung BD unit and a PS3 all ignore the end links.

Update!

The project I was testing this on had the same video presented as a play once, and then presented in a loop. I plugged in the same file both times. Apparently using the same media twice creates some kind of naming convention conflict that renders the end action invalid. I'm guessing javascript doesn't like two objects with the exact same designation.

The result is, the end actions seem to work, or at least the loop does once I created two different copies of the same media and named them differently.

Hope that's helpful.

Thank you for that info. Hmm, I would assume that it should be possible to overcome such a restriction. Otherwise you have to hold every videofile a lot of time in your project.
