Urgent Q reg. DVDA.

Hi

A have a question reg. a project I have to finish tomorrow.

I have a DVDA (ver. 4) project with f.ex. 4 menu items, A B C D. Each menu item represents an MPG-file and VAW file, all imported to my project. So far so good.
When I start the DVD the item A is high-lighted, as default, and this is ok. When I have watched item A it goes back to the menu, with item A high-lighted, which is ok too.

The problem is, if I navigate to item C and plays that one back, the DVD goes back to the menu with item A haighlighted again.

The problem is, if I have 10 or more menu items, it can be hard to remember, where you were, it is easier just to move one right f.ex.

So the question is, is it possible to make the DVD 'stay' on the just watched item when returning to the menu?

Thanks in advance.

/Ulf

I'll leave your request to the DVDA experts but, in the meantime, how about if it came back to the next menu item?
jetdv (Edward Troxel) taught me how to do this and I can attest that it works great!!

Take 3 video clips. Drag them ALL to the menu.
Now double-click on the first video. Go to the "End Action" section. Change the end-action "Destination" to be "Menu 1" (unless you changed the name of the menu). Then change the "Destination Button" to be the second video.
Now go back to the menu and double-click on the second video. Once again, go to the "End Action" sections, change the "Destination" to be "Menu 1", and the "Destination Button" to be the third video.
Once again, go back to the menu and double-click on the third video. Go to the "End Action" section, change the "Destination" to be "Menu 1", and the "Destination Button" to be the first video.
