Thanks for the insight Flood. By your comments, you have just answered my question about the "resume" function. As for your question, I'm no expert so I couldn't say for sure if setting and comparing GPRM's is the "best way" to control the behavior of the resume function.

However, my philosophy is "whatever works is best"

The way I do it is I set a GPRM3 to 1 in the pre of the main Title PCG (the movie PGC) and I clear GPRM3 in the post of that pgc. (I just happened to be using GPRM3 in this particular case, could be any unused GPRM of course).

The Root menu PGC (the main menu) Play button usually links to a short transition video (last PGC of VTS_1, English language domain where I put all the menu PGCs). The post of that transition PGC then links to the main Title1 PGC (movie). This is where I put the conditional branching commands:

1: if (GPRM3==1)GoTo 3
2: JumpVTS_TT Title_1
3: RSM, button=0

And that did the trick. It works perfectly both when I play the VTS titleset directly with PowerDVD XP and one the burned DVD-R
