DVD Lab - Movie/Title order in connections view

[BeachNut]

How do you reorder the movies? Right now they are in the order that I created them in, which (I think) means pressing >> or << on the dvd remote while playing will take you to the next movie in the order that I created them, not the order which I want them to be played in. In the connections view I can see the movie number in black...that's what I'm trying to change. Thanks.

I am afraid that only easy way to do it is ti reathor your project and place movies in order you want them to play. Changing movie number, like Movie 1 to Movie 3 will not change the order, they go be PGC numbers (small red number, top left corner).
Only other way is to modify commands.

Which version of DVD LAB? The PRO version will allow you to create Title and/or Chapter "Playlists" (Playlists will let you create the order you want things to play back).

You can also make your play order a function of the how the buttons are linked - i.e. move the movies around on the "connections veiw" and redirect your buttons to work accordingly (as tinker mentioned), but that can get confusing. I usually just put them in in the order I want to work with them.

Sorry, I forgot about Playlist. That is way to play in sequence you want.
I am not sure if << or >> remount buttons will work, but you can make menu button connected to Playlist and individual buttons to play each movie.

If you currently have your movies linked one after the other

e.g. 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4

in the cionnections window, all you have to do is draw new links to change the order.

e.g. 1 -> 3 -> 2 -> 4

The number doesn't matter unless you use the number keys to skip. The movies play in the order of the links in the connections window.

You can use a playlist to do this as well, but playlists are usually used if you have the same material being played in several different orders. In your case it is simpler to just redraw the arrows.
