Scene selection end action

Is it possible to have the scene selection menu appear after playing the scene (chapter) rather than playing to the end of the movie?

The only way I know to do that is to have separate video files, then set the end action of each one to return to original menu.

Lets say you have a video file on timeline in Vegas that is 20minutes in length. You could conceive that it would divided well in 4 each 5minute long segments.

Export the streams video and audio for DVDArchPro into a single project. In the first case of import set the in and out points (see help) for segment 1. Then import the same video file (DVDAPro will appreciate your importing a second instance of the same file -so it will recognize this- and not create two different files on the DVD) so that now you create a new in and out point for this second segment.
And so on!

What happens is that you have a single video file on the disc - but with four instances linking separate 5 minute segments to active buttons on the menu. You will have 4 buttons in this case.

Thanks guy's - I think I will train the client to hit the menu button on the player and select another chapter. There are going to be a multitude of these training segments and I want to keep it simple as posible (for me).
