How can i disable pause button of players or swap(reuse) play button with(as) enter button?
problem source is this.
recent players(on device not remote) only one button for play/pause.
When i am at main menu trying to play movie, its only pausing motion menu not play movie. If two button is seperated no problem. Play button is working.
i noticed this When i check on retail shop with recent players.
i saw a dvd with a menu but it works with play button as enter.

any idea?

All I can think of is that the player's logic sends a pause command to the DVD when that button is pressed if pause is not a prohibited UOP, and sends Enter if pause is prohibited.

Try prohibiting the "Still Off"/"Pause On" UOP in the menu and see if it works.

After you prohibit the pause in scenarist what happens when you press the enter/pause button.Does it still pause or does it keep on playin.

The other possibility is that the player is keeping track of whether playback is currently in system space or in a title domain. If this is the case, then if playback is in a title domain, it functions as the pause button and if in system space (menu domain) functions as enter.

You didn't mention what authoring system you're using, but if it's Scenarist, you may need to have your menu in a menu domain (i.e. in a language folder in the VMG or in a VTS).
