Full Version: Auto Play on DVD

I just ordered a DVD and I love it except for one thing - as soon as you put in the DVD player, it immediately starts playing the slideshow. I would prefer the client to push play to start it.

Is this b/c I have the slideshow start automatically on the web? If I change the slideshow to 'ask to play?', will the DVD do the same?

Hey Erin smile.gif

Yea....currently all DVD's will autoplay but if people would prefer to have the DVD's play only after the play button is pressed we could certainly do that. It's up to you guys...Either way is cool with us.

It does seem to me to need some sort of title page. It could be the image that is uploaded for the inside of the DVD case maybe. It just needs something to refine the look of the DVD, before it starts to play.

It certainly wouldn't be difficult for us to add that. The reason we didn't is b/c in my opinion it seemed silly to require the viewere to select an option when there is only one option smile.gif...ya know...kind of like having a Table of Contents in a book with only one chapter smile.gif ...but again if a lot of people would prefer that we can certainly add it in.

I agree, I just received my 1st DVD, by the way GREAT JOB, and it would be nicer IMHO to push play to start. I inserted mine and it was playing before I could sit down. Also I really like the folio but is there an option for a vertical photo?

Thanks again for the great products that make our life better!

Cool - just wanted to let everyone know that I talked with Todd last night and we're working on adding in several menu options. Both templates and custom options which will allow for the shows to play only after the play button is pressed and will give a nice starter screen too.

Keep rocking and keep letting us know what you want and we'll do it!

Cheers,
DJ
