Cant get playlist to work

Post by lno »

Have 15 single movietrailer clips. Each of them can be selected with a text button. However in the preview mode I can't use the next button on the remote to skip from one clip to the next. What am I doing wrong?

The playlist for each clip i set to play the next clip in line. E.g.
clip 1 playlist: clip1, clip2, clip3, aso.
clip 2 playlist : clip2, clip3 clip4, aso.
clip 3 playlist : clip3, clip4 clip5, aso.

I'm using DVD Workshop 2.231

I'm not sure if the next button is supposed to do that. (???)

The >>| button will skip to the next chapter within each "movie".

Try this: Add a chapter-point at the end of each clip. Then, hitting the >>| key will take you to the end of the clip, where the playlist should take-over and start the next clip.

Thanks for your reply. It worked :-)
However Its still not possible to go back (bacause of the playlist naturally). Does this mean I have to join all movie trailers into one big file and then divide it into chapters.
What if the trailers are in different formats (avi, mpg, mov, etc.)? Then joining is not an option, which again means no possibility to shuffle back and forth between the trailers?
Comments anyone?
Am I the only one having this problem in DVD Workshop 2.231?
