I'm currently putting together my reel on a DVD to send out but I'm running into problems getting it to play correctly...

I'm using Encore DVD 2.0 & Photoshop CS to make a few menus that will play videos. In Preview mode, everything works fine. I made an ISO of it from Encore (with no copy limitations or that stuff) and burnt it onto DVDs (Sony DVD+R and DVD-R) with Ulead MovieFactory:

1) On my DVD player (Pioneer DV-290-K), the first menu shows up fine but I'm unable to navigate thru the menu items. When I press Play or one of the arrows, the screen says something about the disc not being able to do that. But if I press Stop on the Remote, then Play (to Resume), I will have ONE second to make a selection (like play a video). After that second if up, I can't access the menu buttons again, unless I Stop, Play, etc.

If I press Stop twice, then Play, one of the videos (that is listed on my second menu) will begin playing, without any menu showing up first. I don't get this...

2) On my other older DVD player (Lenoxx Sound DVD-2002), I have no problems playing the DVD or navigating in the menus.

3) When I play the DVD in Cyberlink PowerDVD or WMP, the first menu will show up, but I can't use the mouse or arrows to naviagte thru the menu (like in the Pioneer player).


I'm looking to fix this problem asap. And I want the end user to be able to play the final DVD on their TV, and if not, their PC at least. Maybe if I can import the Encore files into another DVD burning program, I wonder if that'd be possible, I don't know. Help!

Edit update: Check Project gives me no errors. ... I threw together a quick DVD with 3 basic menus for testing, and it worked on the PC and Pioneer player. Think I will redo the whole DVD from scratch, keeping the editing in Photoshop to a minimal if that helps.
