I have a video clip here, ready to author in Maestro. The clip has a 30 seconds intro, which I want to skip. I know it's no problem to set chapter and set firstplay to this chapter.
But it's still possible to rewind or jump back by chapter and reach the suppressed region. But that I want to avoid. Is there any possibility to make a (first) chapter unreachable, neither by jumping by chapters nor by rewinding?

Or do I have to go the hard way and trim the video by that 30 seconds? If YES: Which program is there usable for frame exact cutting (I need to know the exact number of cut frames to also cut the ac3 exactly, to preserve the exact sync).

use a playlist and only add all the other chapters

then if you want you can use IFOUpdate in maestro mode to remove the first PGC which contains all the chapters in the VTS
