Scenarist - Button Over Video time error

[GM006]

For all my button over video movies, I reauthor them completely, including the menu. My problem is, on X-Men 1.5 and Back To The Future DVDs, the first button on the main film always just appears, then the next frame(not second) it disappears. The times are correct. I have a higlight layer and its correct. How do I fix this?
Thanks.

Did you recreate the exact structure? So all cells are layout exactly as the original? If the button is located at the end of a cell (the wrong one) I can imagine that it disappears when the next cell plays.

Just out of curiosity: Why do you reauthor your complete menu in case of button over video?

I fixed my problem... sort of. I just added a non-colored button before the real first button. And yes. I recreated the cell structure cause when the special feature is done, it has to return to the point where it left off or the cell after it. Now about the menu. I reconstruct it because 1 - I like to do it. Its a hobby of mine. 2 - I don't feel like looking through VOB Hex or "guessing" what the command is (and X-Men 1.5 doesn't seamless branch to a dupe PGC like the Matrix, so the IFO is useless). If its my menu, its my commands. And getting that "seamless" effect is easy so I still retain that Hollywood style navigation. Basically, for me its easier to just build the menu over again in the case of Button Over Video.

Hi,

I wrote a guide about button over video explaining how to find the commands without vobedit or guessing. It will be on doom9 one of these days, but I can dend it to you if you want.
