Movie starts immediately, without iDVD theme coming up.

Question

Movie starts immediately, without iDVD theme coming up.

When I move a movie from iMovie to iDVD, burn it and then play it ( either on computer or DVD player ), the movie begins immediately without the iDVD theme coming up. Previously, the iDVD theme would show and you could choose whatever was burned on DVD to watch ( slideshow, movie, etc ). Now I have to stop movie, hit menu on remote to have the iDVD theme show up. I have the latest versions of all programs. Any ideas? I want the iDVD theme page to show as soon

iMac, Mac OS X (10.3.x)

Hi

Please give more info

• How You go from iMovie to iDVD

(I only do this by "Share to MEDIA BROWSER" and as Large or Medium as other res (esp.HD) reduces the final quality even more as downscaling is done badly)

• If You used the "block sheme" in iDVD lay-out window

(if movie in the Auto start box top lefthand corner - move it into next box to the right)

Figured it out by opening the "block scheme" in lay out window and found the movie was in the first block. Just removed it and now, hopefully, the iDVD theme window will be the first thing to open. Thanks.
