DVD menu glitch at end of loop
But after burning an image file and using DVD Player to play it, the menu “hiccups” at the end of the loop. Just enough to be annoying, but I could probably live with it.
So I burned a DVD. I have two DVD players, a LiteON LVW-5005 player/recorder, and an older Go-Video DVP-850 player. On the Go-Video the result mirrors what I saw playing from the image file with DVD Player on my iMac - a momentary hiccup at the main menu loop transition.
However, the LiteON is another story. When I play the DVD on that machine, the menu animation complete freezes at the end of the menu loop. However, the menu selection still works, I can play the movies, and it is fine until it returns to the main menu and hits the end of the loop again. When it freezes, I can also hit the Menu button on the remote to restart the menu loop.
I discovered a slight cosmetic problem in the menu (highlight for a menu selection), so while I was fixing that, I increased the loop time by a couple of seconds (the default loop time was 30 sec, and I had shorted it to about 24 sec to match the background music). When It finishes encoding the new version, I'll burn another DVD and see if it makes any difference.
Anybody have any suggestions or comments?
Thanks.
