dvd SP help	Can't Post

Having a little trouble getting this to go. First time using DVDSP. I want to create 2 buttons. One that will play the video and the other will go to a sub menu to choose by chapter. When I add the asset to A button I can only get it to make the chapter menus. How can I make a button that will play the video from the beginning without going through a sub menu?

Ok, this is super basic, so I'm going to give you the best advice I can. Do the first tutorial that comes with DVDSP. Just that first one. It'll walk you through all this. It's just so basic, if you dont' know, honestly, you really do need to do the tutorial.

Ben (bbalser) is right, Bill... (he also a certified Apple instructor)

DVDSP is a snap once you get your feet on the ground. Spend a few minutes doing so. In a day or so you'll be doing this without even thinking...

Hey guys thanks. I actually figured it out soon after I posted that initial message. I was crunching for time and was putting a basic dvd together and it was driving me nuts not to figure it out quickly. I have never been much of a tutorial guy, I learn a whole lot faster with total imersion and figuring it out myself. It took a while for me to get the time and courage to jump into DVDSP and get away from idvd. Thanks though, I got it goin now...it's actually kind of addicting, lots of bells and whistles to that app.
