Hi Patrick, Feels like teaching my grandmother how to suck eggs to give *you* any advice on videos, but ..... My power supply blew out last week and so I had to fire up an old machine. I installed Ubuntu Koala on it, and did all the updates. Using DVDStyler, I noticed that the setting on the "button properties" that tells it where to go didn't "stick". Every time I made any little change I had to go back and reset the button properties telling the thing where to go. (I always use the "Jump to titleset" Action settings) In a panic, I checked that the DVD works in the old player and it does (two titles). I'm back on Debian Lenny now, so can't confirm any of this. Anyway, it seems funny that it would work on your computer but not the DVD player.
