“Play all” menu button
This is a variation on
“Single menu and multiple titles” on page 14
. In addition to the
buttons that link to individual movie titles, there is a “play all” button that causes all movies
to be played in succession. This is a common design for DVDs containing multiple episodes
of a TV series.
To achieve this, all the movies are linked together in a
playlist
, which simply instructs the
DVD player to play a selection of titles in a particular order, overriding the titles’ End
Actions. Buttons that link to playlists cannot have a Link End Action, so the playlist’s End
Action causes Menu 1 to appear when the last movie in the playlist finishes.
