I have my Home Video DivX-mp3 AVI file (680 MB) running to about 2 hrs. I plan to put it in a single CD with MicroDVD player. On my Hard Disk, I made the MicroDVD INI file and Still Menus and the INI file also defines chapter points on the Video. Everything works fine.
I have the following question:
On selecting a chapter from the Menu, the video starts playing from the desired point and continues with the rest of the video. The Menu is displayed only in the beginning.What if I want to play a chapter, return after chapter is played to the menu and reselect another chapter, and so on. In short can I restrict the playtime for each chapter? Is it possible on MicroDVD?
Is the above possible with any other DivX CD Launchers?
Thanks

You can't do this with chapters. But there's a way arround it.

Define your movie as an animated menu. Make pages for every chapter. In every page you can define a start and stop frame, so this would be your chapter.

Good luck!
