===== Play All button =====

Setting up a menu with "Play All" and "Play One" buttons involves managing the end actions and override settings. In order for the Play All button to work, the end actions for the timelines should be set so that timeline 1 activates timeline 2, timeline 2 activates timeline 3, and so on. To make the buttons for the individual timelines work so that they return to the menu after the video finishes playing, set the override for the buttons to come back to the menu.

A question related to the "Play All" workflow that often comes up is "Can I have the DVD return to the menu when the timeline gets to a chapter point?" Unfortunately, no. Chapter points are no more than identification markers. You can go to a chapter point using a menu or the next/previous chapter buttons on the remote, but there's no mechanism in Encore to tell the DVD how to stop or do something different when a chapter point is reached during playback. In order for the "Play All" scenario to work, each segment must be in a separate timeline.
