Chapter menus

Using DVD MovieFactory 4.

Okay. I know this is probably very simple, but I added chapter points to a single video that I have imported (20 minutes long). I set up each of the chapter menu page(s). But, when I run the preview I can't seem to figure out how the heck to choose to access the chapter menu(s). The Top Menu button is available, but the "Menu" button is ghosted. I just get the main menu page with the single video window / play button.

How the heck do I get the chapter points to be accessible via a menu

By the way. When I burn the DVD, I can skip to each chapter point using the remote control, so the points are being set, I just haven't got any of my menus...

Thanks.

Jim

Sounds as if under the Setup Menu screen Advanced Settings, you may have Create Chapter Menu unchecked.

I think I found out what is going on. If the Play button is highlighted and you press play then the whole video plays, but if I highlight the actual video thumbnail then the chapter menu(s) play
