thanks Ronni,
I was going to leave i until needed to burn something but I just
couldn't wait so I found a short clip and tried that and YAY!!!
I would rather not have the menu as none of the styles backgrounds
really fit but better that than the painful looping and at least the
auto play lets me get away without having it show at the beginning.
thanks everyone for your help

Hi Yvonne,
I'm fairly sure your DVDs are looping because you don't have a Menu
on the DVDs.
It's the way the DVD is burnt, not the equipment that is playing them.
No Menu on a DVD, the DVD will play through and then play through
again etc.
Try one with a Menu and see what happens.
An alternative for you is to choose a menu along with auto play.
That way the menu is skipped but the playback stops at the end of
the first title. However, the menu will appear at the end of play.
Cheers,
Ronni

thanks Daniel
it is on three different Macs here, our tv and lots of others all
around the state..~lol~
If it wasn't for the others I probably wouldn't even care but it
gets a bit embarrasing when showing a highlights dvd to a group of
people and have to try and zap it closed quickly at the end before
it starts again.

Hi Yvonne
Are they lopping on both the computer they are being played in
and/or an
external DVD player to a TV? Or just on the computer?
It could also be a setting on the actual device itself just as
another line
of thought.
Otherwise, it's probably what Guru Ronni suggests. :o)
Was just thinking out loud for another idea just incase.....
Hope something works.
Kind Regards

Yvonne,
When you burn a DVD using Toast, do you select a "Menu Style"?
Do you have a Menu on all your burnt DVDs?
If you don't have a Menu for the DVD it would default to both
Autoplay and continuous play I would suspect.
Cheers,
Ronni

continuously are ticked.

Hi Yvonne
In version 9, and assuming you're burning them from the Video
Tab, under
Options on the left hand side there is a "More" button. If you
click that,
you'll get a drop down menu. The option to untick there is "Play
all items
continuously". Once done, it should be fine.
May pay to check it for the next few DVD's you do, as I'm not
sure if it
saves the preference for each one.Look like it should though.
Hope that helps.
Kind Regards
