Hi guys,

need a little help from you!

I "burned" a DVD image from a mpeg2 movie - no menu, automatic render,
then burned it using Toast. It works fine, DVD plays welll as supposed.
But: when the movie finishes playing, the DVD starts unexpectedly from beginning,
over and over gain. I have to stop it manually by remote control.

I watched out for kind of "switch" to suppress this behavior, but wasn't so lucky to find it.

Any idea where to screw?

TIA,
opalla

The functionality you're describing sounds like you have the option for "Play all items continuously" checked.

That's what happens when there is no menu. Instead, choose the Auto play on insert option and create a menu. The menu will appear at the end of the movie.

@ SomeRandom
No - "Play all items continuously" is not checked

@ tsantee
Promising - I'll check this out.

Thanks to you all. If one finds a simpler solution, ya welcome to share ;-)

Regards,
opalla

PS.: I can confirm: tsantee's suggestion works, but you have to use these weird menus provided.
I'd prefer a simple checkbox for "no repeat", or better: a movie should quit if it has reached its
end and "repeat" should be the option ...

Under the Menu settings I choose black for highlight, background, and text color. This has my DVDs end with a black screen, and avoids the "weird menus".
