Q: DVD STUDIO PRO - How to make chapters loop?

Hi

I'm trying to create a DVD and my last problem I'd like to resolve before the final burn is:

 

Is there a way to make the Chapters in my Track Loop?

 

My scenario: I have 5 Chapters Total. In my Chpater Menu I created 5 Buttons so you can jump straight to 5 Chapters. But let's say for Button 3 (Chapter 3), when I activate/play it, if I hit SKIP FWD I can skip to Chapter 4, & 5, BUT if I hit SKIP BACK it stops at Chapter 3 (which is where I started - Button 3).

 

Is there a way for me to set it so that if I hit Button 3-Chapter 3 from the Chapter Menu - I can access Chapter 1&2 by hitting Skip Backwards while the track is playing? The only way I can think to resolve this is to add Chapter 1&2 after Chapter 5 in my Story List but that means I can only hit Skip Forward and it will eventually stop skipping forward once it hits Chapter 2. So is there a way to loop it???

 

Sorry I hope I explained it decent enough for you guys to understand

 

NEED HELP ASAP!!! Trying to finish for a client this weekend! :

    Yeahhh so it took me giving up and just burning to DVD and playing it in an actual DVD player to realize that the DVD Studio Pro does its "behind-the-scenes" magic and will have that function automatically figured out for the DVD Player. DO NOT rely on the simulation feature...geez...problem solved.
