  1. I recently authored my VCD home video (30 minutes) with chapters (using entrypoints). It works fine. I just had this question. Is it possible on a VCD that the control returns to a menu after the chapter is complete. Hope the following makes it clear.

    -Track1-- --------------------Track2--------------------
    Menu -> Chap 1-----Chap2------Chap3-------Chap4-------

    I select Chap1 from Menu, after playing Chap1 instead of continuing along the track with Chap2,Chap3 it should return to the Menu.
    Of course I can achieve this by cutting the video into multiple tracks.
    -Track1-- --Track2-- --Track3-- --Track4-- --Track5--
    Menu Chap1--- Chap2 Chap3 Chap4

    But is it possible on VCD with only one track and entrypoints.
    Is there a work around?
    Thanks

  2. Hi,
    I just found a way to possibly do this on http://www.geocities.com/medinotes/vcd/chapters.html.
    It could be done using <timeout> tag in the xml and running vcdxbuild. Shall try this out.
    Thanks to those who read and considered replying.

  3. Not "possibly do this" but "definitely do this".

    Good luck.

    Regards.
